Hi Alan,
Thank you for your reaction and your suggestions.
Indeed, it is not exactly what I envisaged. I would be happiest if there were a way to add a and b as a suffix to the number, like Figure 2a.
With combinations it is easy to have a general Caption and specific captions for the components of the combination. But for the List of Figures I see no other possibility than, for instance "2 Dutch scenery. a. Cow, b. Mill".
In fact I have no problems when I can make use of a combination, but, as I wrote, sometimes combinations are impossible for lack of space on the page.
What you describe as a challenge for Hans could be perfect, I think, provided an itemization can be interrupted and continued on next page. (I tried your liitle code snippet but ConText would not have it.)
Splitting a float combination might turn out to be simpler. Only I have no clue as to how to achieve that.
Thanks again.
Best regards,
Robert
