[NTG-context] Overlapping \starthanging \stophanging with side captions
Hi,
I'm trying to have extra explanatory text on the side of figures that is
not part of the figure's caption. I can get a single figure to work but am
having problems when there are multiple figures one after the other.
I'm new to ConTeXT and have looked at the Details Manual but have not been
able to fix this.
I've been using something like:
\starthanging{
\placefigure[force][fig:first]{Caption 1}
{\externalfigure[first-figure][width=\textwidth]}}
\inother[width=5cm]{Some text for the other bit}
\stophanging
\starthanging{
\placefigure[force][fig:first]{Caption 2}
{\externalfigure[second-figure][width=\textwidth]}}
\inother[width=5cm]{Some text for the other bit 2}
\stophanging
and the two figures will overlap.
Any help would be much appreciated.
thanks
Pete

Re: [NTG-context] Overlapping \starthanging \stophanging with side captions
Wolfgang, thank you very much for your answer about placing text.
Using:
\startplacefigure[location=force,title={First dummy caption}]
\inmargin{First margin dummy}
\externalfigure[dummy][width=\textwidth]
\stopplacefigure
The text in the \inmargin section appears at the bottom of the figure. This
works for about one line of text. For some of the figures I'm trying to put
3-4 lines in a wide margin and would like the text to appear at the top or
the middle of the figure.
I asked a question over at Stackexchange on this:
http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/107856/placing-text-in-the-margin-next-to-a-figure-using-context
Using \starthanging \stophanging put the text in the correct place but then
the figures ran into each other.
regards
Pete
