Dear all,
is the following possible?
List of figures
1.1 Figure caption . . . . . . 2
<page break>
*imagine figure here
Figure 1.1: Figure caption is a lot longer than it appears in the list of figures.
I'd like to shorten the captions in the list of figures that I produce using \placelist[figure] (preferably cut off clean, no ellipsis or the like).
I know about \nomarking{} but it seems to apply only to chapter, section etc. titles.
Cheers
Christian

This is indeed possible, using \select; see
http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/20060501.171706.24b88466.en.html .
Example usage:
\defineselector[caption][max=2,n=2]
\starttext
\setupselector[caption][n=1]
\completelistoffigures
\setupselector[caption][n=2]
\placefigure[][]
{\select{caption}
{A short caption}
{A rather longer caption which will appear below the figure itself}}
{This is the content of the actual figure}
\stoptext

The possibilities of Context continue to amaze me...

WIth the current beta you can write:
\startplacefigure[title={A rather long caption …},list={A short caption}]
\externalfigure[…]
\stopplacefigure

Wow, that is even better! I updated to latest beta because of this and it works like a charm:)
P.S: Now I'also getting the 1.7MB pdf when including the png-file, like mentioned in the thread "terrible png placement". (ConTeXt ver: 2011.11.09 20:58 MKIV, LuaTeX, Version beta-0.70.1-2011110321 (rev 4277), Win32)
But I don't have png's in my work file, so that's no biggie.

strange, there's a \nopdfcompression in context.mkiv ... probably a left
over from a test .. just remove that line and remake the format
