Firstly, thanks for the reply. Secondly, apologies again for not
supplying a minimal example - this would have helped me track down
what's causing my issue.


\mainlanguage[en-gb] %% Remove me for labels
%\mainlanguage[en]  %% or use me instead

\definefloat[picture][pictures] % Define our fancy boxout
\starttext
\placepicture{This is my caption}{Some float text}
\stoptext


The above will fail to generate a caption. Removing the \mainlanguage
command will cause the label to appear as expected. Using
\setuplabeltext[en-gb][picture=Picture ] will fail to work. Changing
the main language to 'en' or 'nl' will cause the label to reappear.

I'll change the main language to 'en' for the time being.

Thanks again for the help,

Felix
