Re: captions in float combinations

[Robert Blackstone <blackstone.robert@gmail.com>]

Hi Marco, hi Aditya,

Thank you very much for the solutions you have proposed for my problem, that of making a side by side combination of two figures of unequal height with both the figures and their (sub)-captions located at the top.

In order not to make this mail too long I simply refer to the ntg-context Digest numbers and message number containing the proposed solutions: 
Marco's in ntg-context Digest, Vol 111, Issue 23, Message 1, and in ntg-context Digest, Vol 111, Issue 24, message 5, Aditya's in ntg-context Digest, Vol 111, Issue 24, message 4

These solutions give me all the possibilities I need. 
When I just want both figures in the combination to be located at the top without subcaptions I will probably use Marco's second proposal, which is both simpler and far more elegant than the hack I found myself.

If I want them at the top with subcaptions I will use Aditya's method, which, by the way, is nearly identical with Marco's first solution, but for two arguments for \externalfigure, the fllename of the figure and [location=top].

This fully solved my problem. Thank you both.
Wouldn't it  be worthwhile to add it to the wiki?

Best regards,
Robert
