Hello

Is it possible to suppress the headline on pages which are entirely occupied by an illustration?  This is sometimes useful to maximize the space available for the picture, especially a landscape picture with a lot of detail.

I have used 'orientation=270' to position a figure in landscape mode, with the width set to the vertical height of the page (or close to it if that would make the overall size too large).  But I haven't worked out how to set the caption underneath the figure (that is, rotate the caption also, using the full width of the figure):   the caption appears at the bottom of the page as for a portrait-oriented figure, which is inconvenient for the reader.

You already got a few suggestions but for a better answer it is always helpful to provide a minimal example which shows what you have tried so far. To create an example without the need for external ressources you can either use one of the included sample images

%%%% begin example
\setupexternalfigures[location=default]

\starttext

\startcombination[2*2]
  {\externalfigure[spider.eps][combination]}{spider.eps}
  {\externalfigure  [mill.png][combination]}{mill.png}
  {\externalfigure   [cow.pdf][combination]}{cow.pdf}
  {\externalfigure[hacker.jpg][combination]}{hacker.png}
\stopcombination

\stoptext
%%%% end example

or use the dummy library to add random backgrounds to images.

%%%% begin example
\useMPlibrary[dum]

\starttext

\startcombination[3*1]
  {\externalfigure [wide][width=6cm,height=4cm]}{}
  {\externalfigure[equal][width=4cm,height=4cm]}{}
  {\externalfigure [tall][width=4cm,height=6cm]}{}
\stopcombination

\stoptext
%%%% end example
