any clue in the logfile: leaving out both empty curly braces generates no
error message and the file typesets beautifully except for this one detail,
a vertical instead of the desired horizontal arrangement of two figures. But
when one leaves out only one of the empty curly braces the file does not
typeset at all and there is a clear (well, fairly clear) error message. Like
what happens for instance when one leaves out the {} for the caption
after \placefigure[][].
A useful experience anyway. Thanks again.
Best regards,
