[NTG-context] caption for moved sidefloat in the margin

[NTG-context] caption for moved sidefloat in the margin

[Henning Hraban Ramm]

Hi again,

I’m reading through the details manual and set up some figures as 
sidefloats that are offset to the margin. This works well.

Now I’d like to have their captions in the margin, below the figure.
If I set location=innermargin, then the caption is beside the image, 
i.e. somewhere at the edge. If I don’t, I can’t get it to move to the 
left edge of the image.

How can I do that?

Hraban

Thank you, that’s great! I’m learning a lot (should leave the book 
writing to Mikael, I guess).
Didn’t progress to the float placement yet…

Well, sorry, but it doesn’t cover my case.

It shows:
* \textwidth floats with caption in the margin
* margin floats with caption below
* \textwidth + margin with caption above or below

but not: side float e.g. 2/3 \textwidth, moved into the margin, text 
flowing around, caption in the margin below the image.

It seems like sidefloat and the desired caption placement exclude each 
other.

Must I resolve to layer trickery?

Hraban
