Dear Otared and Wolfgang,

thanks for your helpful suggestions and information!

One problem, however, persists: The theorem environment gets misplaced when a figure is placed to its left:

\setupexternalfigures[location=default]
\setupenumerations[
	alternative=left,
	text=Theorem,
	title=no,
	stopper={:},
	distance=0ex,
	width=fit,
	right={~},
	style=normal,
	hang=fit]
\defineenumeration[theorem]
\starttext
\placefigure[right, none]{}{\externalfigure[mill]}
\starttheorem
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides.
\stoptheorem
\stoptext

Does anyone know a way to fix this?

Thanks and best regards,
Florian
