'Dot' after Float label Howto?

'Dot' after Float label Howto?

[Johannes Graumann]

Hello,

My proofreader wants the float labels ("Figure 2.5") to end with a dot as
well (as in "Figure 2.5.").
Can somebody please point me at how to achieve that?

Thanks, Joh

I thought that stopper would do it, but either I misuse it, or there's a  
bug in there: the dot appears twice!

\setupcaption[figure][stopper=.]

\starttext

\chapter{joke}

\placefigure{What}
{\framed[width=5cm]{Hi}}

\stoptext

Regards,
BG

Strange. If you have sub figures (like Figure 1.2.a) the stopper strategy
works. Just with normal figures (Figure 1.2) there are two dots ...

Looks like a bug to me.
