A while ago, I was pointed (by Wolfgang or Hans, I guess) to
\start/stoptextdisplay to enhance whitespace handling around images.
I wanted to document it, but can’t find it in the sources:
$ context --find=textdisplay
mtx-context |
…/tex/texmf-context/doc/context/sources/general/manuals/ontarget/ontarget-profiles.tex
mtx-context |
mtx-context | 196 \starttextdisplay
…
mtx-context | 277 \stoptextdisplay
mtx-context |
mtx-context |
…/tex/texmf-context/doc/context/sources/general/manuals/ontarget/ontarget-standardize.tex
mtx-context |
mtx-context | 888 \starttextdisplay
…
mtx-context | 941 \stoptextdisplay
mtx-context |
These two documents use it and compile flawlessly.
What’s on?
Hraban

My guess is Mikael because I saw the command the first time in the
source of a presentation from him.

Oh, that’s probably where I saw it, too.

Thank you!
So, "context --find" does not what I thought it would.

Here is a short example which two other solution to get a similar effect
as \starttextdisplay.
\usemodule[visual]
\setupfloat[figure][location=left]
\starttext
\fakewords{10}{20}
\startlinecorrection
\fakeimage{4cm}{3cm}{6cm}{4cm}
\stoplinecorrection
\fakewords{10}{20}
\blank[2*line]
\fakewords{10}{20}
\startplacefigure[location={force,none}]
\fakeimage{4cm}{3cm}{6cm}{4cm}
\stopplacefigure
\fakewords{10}{20}
\blank[2*line]
\fakewords{10}{20}
\starttextdisplay
\fakeimage{4cm}{3cm}{6cm}{4cm}
\stoptextdisplay
\fakewords{10}{20}
\stoptext

AFAIR the find option searches only the manual sources.

Thank you!
And when would you suggest what?
A float I’d use only if I need caption/numbering or the floating feature.
When I tried line correction, it never helped; probably I used it wrong
(e.g. around section titles).

Looks like it. So I should use grep (mtxrun --script grep).

linecorrection is older, textdisplay newer and both are mainly meant to
position boxed content (like images) in a way so that spacing looks
acceptable ... they are vboxes with spacing around them so not meant for
e.g. section heads or whatever text; it's for images, framed stuff,
maybe bTABLE etc
