Here, I've created an example that does just that. I want the figure to appear immediately after the bold text. Even if a lot of whitespace is placed and the figure appears on the next page, that is fine, but I don't want the next group of text to appear until *after* the figure. This is really confusing my readers.

\starttext
    \input knuth
    \input knuth

    {\boldface This is a short note about the picture. It should appear right after this.}
    \placefigure[here,force]{caption}{
        \externalfigure[1.jpg][width=\textwidth]
    }

    \input knuth
    \input knuth
    \input knuth
    \input knuth
    \input knuth
    \input knuth

\stoptext

I have been using \placefigure[here, force] to place some graphics, but its instead showing other text from the next section, then the picture. In testing, this is causing readers to be confused, as they expect to see a picture, but its somehow appearing two pages later. I don't care it it requires a huge blank area on the page before it, how can I make it so any text after \placefigure[here, force] doesn't appear before the figure?
