Hi all,
Suppose I have the following document:
\setupexternalfigures[location={local,default}]
\starttext
\dorecurse{3}{\input{knuth}}
\placefigure[top]{cow}{\externalfigure[cow][width=150mm]}
\input{knuth}
\placefigure[page]{one more cow}{\externalfigure[cow][width=150mm]}
\placefigure[page]{cow again}{\externalfigure[cow][width=150mm]}
\dorecurse{10}{\input{knuth}}
\stoptext
Here I would expect the text flow to continue below the first image,
and then two more images to be positioned on separate pages. Instead I
get no text at all at the page with the Figure 1 and one more
blank page after it. Only after the last image the text flow continues.
Since similar situations are very common for documents which contain
several large illustrations, I would like to know if there are any
workarounds for the problem.

Yes, I tried leftpage/rightpage: this removes the blank page, but may cause images to be reordered (so that e. g. 3 goes before 2), which is completely unacceptable IMO. Also, this doesn't help with the text flow at the page where the first image is positioned (still no text below the image). -- Regards, Alexey Kryukov <anagnost at yandex dot ru> Moscow State University Faculty of History On Mon, 6 Apr 2020 13:58:57 +0200 Tomas Hala wrote: > Hi Alexey, > > I do not how free are you in decision where figures should be located > but I tried with "leftpage" and "rightpage" instead of "page" and > it seems to be ok. > > \placefigure[rightpage]{one more cow}{\externalfigure[cow] > [width=150mm]} \placefigure[leftpage]{cow again}{\externalfigure[cow] > [width=150mm]} > > Best wishes, > > Tomáš > > > Mon, Apr 06, 2020 ve 02:15:50PM +0300 Alexey Kryukov napsal(a): > # Hi all, > # > # Suppose I have the following document: > # > # \setupexternalfigures[location={local,default}] > # \starttext > # > # \dorecurse{3}{\input{knuth}} > # \placefigure[top]{cow}{\externalfigure[cow][width=150mm]} > # \input{knuth} > # \placefigure[page]{one more cow}{\externalfigure[cow][width=150mm]} > # \placefigure[page]{cow again}{\externalfigure[cow][width=150mm]} > # \dorecurse{10}{\input{knuth}} > # \stoptext > # > # Here I would expect the text flow to continue below the first image, > # and then two more images to be positioned on separate pages. > # Instead I get no text at all at the page with the Figure 1 and one > # more blank page after it.

Using [top,force] just causes context to break the text flow at the place where the image is specified. You can see that both the first and second pages in your example are underfilled, although I would expect the free space to be filled with the text. Also it seems the [force] flag causes the [page] flag to be ignored: here the second and third images are positioned as if [top] has been specified, but, again, there is no text under the second image, as in the file is followed by the third image, which goes to the next page. -- Regards, Alexey Kryukov <anagnost at yandex dot ru> Moscow State University Faculty of History ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://context.aanhet.net archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread
