I want to have the two figures numbered as seperate, independent
figures, but when using a combination, the whole combination is
treated as one figure and gets only one number and one label.

I've consulted the manuals and searched the list archives, but I have
not found a solution.
tnx in advance,
I now know how to suppress the caption of the combination. By using the
option none.
Now I have to generate the captions of the two figures with the correct
numbers and the reference-labels by hand. So my questions:
- How can I increment the figure counter?
- How can I print the current figure number?
- How can I add labels for referencing to the two figures?
- Is there a better approach to do this?
I have two small figures. So I really want them next to each other. It's
a waste of space to put them underneath each other.
ok then, since no one comes to your help ...
\starttext
\placefigure
[none]
{}
{\startcombination
{\externalfigure[cow][width=4cm]} {\placefloatcaption[figure]{one}}
{\externalfigure[cow][width=4cm]} {\placefloatcaption[figure]{two}}
\stopcombination}

Wow, is it that simple and elegant...
I had to figure out to replace 'figure' by 'figuur' in the dutch
interface. But doing so gives me exactly what I want.
Many thanks!

Thanks for the try. I've also tried columns. But the floating mechanism
and columns/tables doesn't cooperate very well...
Maybe there is a way to increment the figure counter by hand? And to add
a label for the added figurenumber? Then I can make the
[2*1]-combination appear as two independent figures.
the only problem then is the caption of the combination. I don't want
that caption, and I don't want the space that is occupied by that caption.

The best I can get is
\starttext
\useexternalfigure[myfigure][filename][width=1in]
\placetable[here][tab:2figures]{none}
\starttable[|c|c|]
\NC
\placefigure[here]{My Caption 1}{\externalfigure[myfigure]}
\NC
\placefigure[here]{My Caption 1}{\externalfigure[myfigure]}
\NC
\FR
\stoptable
\stoptext
But something in \placefigure produces undesired glue so that the
figures
end up in the margins.
Somebody else?

p.s. I've already sent this message to the list, thursday, but it
didn't show up in my inbox. So this is another try.
