So now I'm using \completelistoffigures to get the list of figures. However, my captions with the figures are quite long so I was wondering if it's possible to let ConTeXt write a different text to the List of Figures. I thought something similar was possible with the Table of Contents and the \chapter command, but I cannot remember how...maybe I imagined. So is it possible to write a different text to the LoF? I use \placefigure[here]{This is my very long caption} {\externalfigure[myfigure]} to place my figures in the text. I've experimented with using \writetolist[figure]{1}{short caption} to write a text to the LoF, but there are some problems with that method. (the figure can be placed on a different page than the \writetolist, and I'll need a way to stop ConTeXt writing the caption text to the list as well). Any ideas? My best, Tim
