placefigure ?

placefigure ?

[R. Bastian]

Hello,

In Mk II, I need to place figures - with numbers and captions - 
but \placefigure is for floats and never places the figure [here].
Is there another way?

Thanks,

I've found that mostly [here,force] will do the trick, but sometimes a
judiciously placed \page helps, too. That is a bit of cheap and sleazy
way of doing it and I only do that in the final round of layouting,
but works for me.

I think the 'real' way would be using layers, but haven't gotten as
far as to teaching myself *that*. See
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Layers for more information.


Regards,

Mari

[here, force] does when it wants :-)

I will reduce the  size of the 3 figures, add a 4th and play with 'combinatie' (2 x 2)

Layers are a graphic technique.

You need only “force”.
