Subject: Automatic counting groupsuffix for subfigures
Date: Wed, 24 Nov 2021 10:19:06 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211124101906.2d8b7da4@homerow> (raw)

Hi!

I'd like to use subfigure numbering for floats. This works:

\useMPlibrary [dum]
\starttext

\startplacefigure [location=none]
  \startfloatcombination [nx=2]
    \startplacefigure [title=Left, reference=ref:left, group=one, groupsuffix=a]
      \externalfigure
    \stopplacefigure
    \startplacefigure [title=Right, reference=ref:right, group=one, groupsuffix=b]
      \externalfigure
    \stopplacefigure
  \stopfloatcombination
\stopplacefigure

See \in{image}[ref:right] (right) and \in{image}[ref:left] (left).
\stoptext

The output is correct, but the usage is verbose. I'd like to replace
the manual groupsuffix numbering with something automatic. ConTeXt
uses automatic numbering in many places so it seems strange to
number the subfigures manually.

I have tried using counters and labels, but something is always
messed up and I couldn't get it to work.

How to achieve automatic subfigure numbering without specifying the
groupsuffix manually?

Marco
