Hi there,

somehow floats that I place with keywords location=left or 
location=rightcreate a blank page first. Am I missing anything? I am 
sure that this wasn't the case before 19.12.2018. Right now I have the 
recent 03.01.2019 version.

My MWE and an image of the output:

\starttext

   \startplacefigure[
     title={Caption},
     location=left]
     \externalfigure[logo--context][width=]
   \stopplacefigure

   \input tufte

\stoptext


Greetings, Lars.
