Seems to be impossible, what I'd like to get:
-- picture beside text in a two-column environment
-- picture sitting on the grid

I tried:
\useexternalfigure[pic][mypic][maxwidth=.5\textwidth] % ok
\placeongrid[bottom]{\placefigure[right][somewhat]{none}{\externalfigure[pic]}}

The picture is always centered in the column and centered between some lines, 
text below.

Is there a solution?
