Spacing after combination

Spacing after combination

[Marco Patzer]

Hi!

Is there a way to influence the spacing after a combination is
placed?

\useMPlibrary [dum]

\starttext

\startcombination [2*2]
  \startcontent \externalfigure  \stopcontent
  \startcaption Foo    \stopcaption
  \startcontent \externalfigure  \stopcontent
  \startcaption Bar    \stopcaption
  \startcontent \externalfigure  \stopcontent
  \startcaption Lorem  \stopcaption
  \startcontent \externalfigure  \stopcontent
  \startcaption Ipsum  \stopcaption
\stopcombination

\samplefile{knuth}

\stoptext

I know I could wrap it in a float and use the float to control the
spacing, but it would be great if I could do without that float.

Marco,

there is a \setupcombination command:

\setupcombination [...,...] [..,..=..,..]
1 NAME
2 nx
ny
width height location distance alternative align continue before after inbetween style
color
OPT
= NUMBER
= NUMBER
= fit DIMENSION
= fit DIMENSION
= left middle right top bottom = DIMENSION
= label text
= inherits: \setupalign
= yes no
= COMMAND
= COMMAND
= COMMAND
= STYLE COMMAND
= COLOR

I hope this will enable you to get what you want.

Willi

None of these options is applied at the begin or end of the environment 
(use the following setup in the example).

\setupcombination
   [   before={\endgraf{\tttf    [before]}\endgraf},
        after={\endgraf{\tttf     [after]}\endgraf},
    inbetween={\endgraf{\tttf [inbetween]}\endgraf}]


A alternative to using floats is to put the combination in a 
linecorrection environment, i.e.

\startlinecorrection
   \startcombination [2*2]
   ...
   \stopcombination
\stoplinecorrection

or

\startlinecorrection[blank]
   \startcombination [2*2]
   ...
   \stopcombination
\stoplinecorrection

I hadn't thought of this. That's better suited than a float.
However, I'd prefer to not have another environment around the
combinations, but if there's no other way, I'd settle for your
approach. So far that seems to be the best choice.

Thanks for the quick response.

A combination is a construction, not really an "environment".
