Dear list,
How can I place two figures next to each other without using a
\startcombination ... \stopcombination group?
I now have this, but it is not what I want:
\gebruikexternfiguur[kortoctaaf][cekort][type=eps,hoogte=30mm]
\gebruikexternfiguur[gebrokenoctaaf][gebroken][type=eps,hoogte=30mm]
\plaatsfiguur
[hier]
[fig:klavieren]
{Enkele varianten van het groot octaaf}
{\startcombinatie[2*1]
{\kortoctaaf}{kort octaaf}
{\gebrokenoctaaf}{gebroken octaaf}
\stopcombinatie}
I want to have the two figures numbered as seperate, independent
figures, but when using a combination, the whole combination is treated
as one figure and gets only one number and one label.
XXXX XXXX
X X X X
XXXX XXXX
fig.n fig.n+1
I've consulted the manuals and searched the list archives, but I have
not found a solution.
tnx in advance,
Peter van Kranenburg

I now know how to suppress the caption of the combination. By using the
option "none".
Now I have to generate the captions of the two figures with the correct
numbers and the reference-labels by hand. So my questions:
- How can I increment the figure counter?
- How can I print the current figure number?
- How can I add labels for referencing to the two figures?
- Is there a better approach to do this?
I have two small figures. So I really want them next to each other. It's
a waste of space to put them underneath each other.

ok then, since no one comes to your help ...
\starttext
\placefigure
[none]
{}
{\startcombination
{\externalfigure[cow][width=4cm]} {\placefloatcaption[figure]{one}}
{\externalfigure[cow][width=4cm]} {\placefloatcaption[figure]{two}}
\stopcombination}
\stoptext

Wow, is it that simple and elegant...
I had to figure out to replace 'figure' by 'figuur' in the dutch
interface. But doing so gives me exactly what I want.
Many thanks!

Thanks for the try. I've also tried columns. But the floating mechanism
and columns/tables doesn't cooperate very well...
Maybe there is a way to increment the figure counter by hand? And to add
a label for the added figurenumber? Then I can make the
[2*1]-combination appear as two independent figures.
the only problem then is the caption of the combination. I don't want
that caption, and I don't want the space that is occupied by that caption.
greetings
Peter

The best I can get is
\starttext
\useexternalfigure[myfigure][filename][width=1in]
\placetable[here][tab:2figures]{none}
\starttable[|c|c|]
\NC
\placefigure[here]{My Caption 1}{\externalfigure[myfigure]}
\NC
\placefigure[here]{My Caption 1}{\externalfigure[myfigure]}
\NC
\FR
\stoptable
\stoptext
But something in \placefigure produces undesired glue so that the
figures
end up in the margins.
Somebody else?

Dear list,
How can I place two figures next to each other without using a
\startcombination ... \stopcombination group?
I now have this, but it is not what I want:
\gebruikexternfiguur[kortoctaaf][cekort][type=eps,hoogte=30mm]
\gebruikexternfiguur[gebrokenoctaaf][gebroken][type=eps,hoogte=30mm]
\plaatsfiguur
[hier]
[fig:klavieren]
{Enkele varianten van het groot octaaf}
{\startcombinatie[2*1]
{\kortoctaaf}{kort octaaf}
{\gebrokenoctaaf}{gebroken octaaf}
\stopcombinatie}
I want to have the two figures numbered as seperate, independent
figures, but when using a combination, the whole combination is treated
as one figure and gets only one number and one label.
XXXX XXXX
X X X X
XXXX XXXX
fig.n fig.n+1
I've consulted the manuals and searched the list archives, but I have
not found a solution.
tnx in advance,
Peter van Kranenburg
p.s. I've already sent this message to the list, thursday, but it didn't
show up in my inbox. So this is another try.
