Subject: Re: custom cite in \externalfigure
Date: Fri, 6 May 2016 09:47:39 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <8AEB94DC-0C6A-4028-AE5F-1B4F5AE8DD44@arch.ethz.ch> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20160504153935.20f98c61@iram-hb-003386.hsd1.co.comcast.net>

that's what I did at first:

\startsetups btx:duane:cite:external
  {\externalfigure[\btxfield{url_image}][width=10cm]}
\stopsetups

the problem is that I need the control the width of externalfigure in the text. 
With the above solution I have to define a different cite rendering for every possible width I need in my layout. 

Isn't there a way to just get the filename of the cite so I can a macro with the width as an argument?

Thanks Michael
