Hi all,
regarding my problems with figure placing (posted on 2005-05-05), I've
found out that problems occur only if there are too many unplaced
figures (pending floats).
After a lot of googling, I've only found out that in LaTeX, there's a
command \clearpage which places all unprocessed floats and starts a new
page. In addition, the commands \totalnumber, \topnumber and
\bottomnumber are available to set the maximum float count on one page.
(for details, see http://www.tug.org.in/tutorial/chap09-scr.pdf)
Is there any similar mechanism in ConTeXt? Which command(s) can I use to
place all unprocessed figures immediately?
Thanks in advance.
Richard

Hello Hans,
thanks, but my ConTeXt reports "Unknown control sequence". I use TeXLive
2003 (Windows XP) and a ConTeXt distribution downloaded about two moths ago.
Browsing the ConTeXt sources, I've found a \doflushfloats macro which
seems to do the desired job... Does it really do?

Hello Hans,
I've already tried it, with a very nice result.
Thanks once more!
