figure placement and flushbottom

figure placement and flushbottom

[Peter Münster]

Hello,
in general, the suggested method to get LaTeX \flushbottom behaviour, shown
on http://contextgarden.net/Flush_bottom, works quite well.
But here I have a situation, where I do not understand, why the first page
is not filled:

\setupwhitespace[0pt plus 1fill]
\defineblank[aroundfloat][0.8\lineheight plus 3fill minus 0.2\lineheight]
\setupfloats[spacebefore=aroundfloat,spaceafter=aroundfloat]
\let\stoptextO=\stoptext
\def\stoptext{\vfilll\stoptextO}

%\setupfloats[default={top,bottom,page}]% same as \def\fps@figure{tbp} in LaTeX?

\starttext
bla

\section{bla}% strange: if there is no table, then the figure placement is ok.
\starttable[|c|]
\NC bla\NC\AR
\stoptable

bla
\placefigure{bla}{\framed[height=10cm]{bla}}

\dorecurse{30}{\dorecurse{30}{bla }\par}
\stoptext


TIA for any hint, Peter

I don't know what you want to achieve but this is not working because 0 is not a character (and therefore not part of a \cs)

could but you may expect funny side effects, so better use:

\prependtoks \vfilll \to \everystoptext

It's an O (for "Original"), not a 0 (zero).

Thanks, this looks cleaner.

Cheers, Peter
