I pulled this together from the example in the Wiki here: <https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Graphics_and_media/Boxes_and_stacking_mechanisms/Collectors> The 'location' keyword is a bit of a mystery: if it is the same as 'corner' then the item is placed outside the cumulative bounds of the composed item so far. If diagonally opposite then it seems to be placed within the bounds of the composed object so far. \setupexternalfigures[location={local,default}] \startuseMPgraphic{Circle} fill fullcircle scaled 20pt withcolor \mycolor; \stopuseMPgraphic \def\mycolor{red} \definecollector[Upper] \setcollector[Upper] {\externalfigure[mill.png][width=.4\textwidth]} \setcollector[Upper] [corner={right,bottom},location={left,top}] {\useMPgraphic{Circle}} \setcollector[Upper] [corner={right,bottom},location={left,top}] {\framed[frame=off,width=20pt]{\color[white]{01}}} \def\mycolor{yellow} \definecollector[Lower] \setcollector[Lower] \setcollector[Lower] {\externalfigure[hacker.jpg][width=.4\textwidth]} \setcollector[Lower] [corner={left,top}, location={right,bottom}] {\useMPgraphic{Circle}} \setcollector[Lower] [corner={left,top}, location={right,bottom}] {\framed[frame=off,width=20pt]{\color[blue]{2}}} \startplacefigure[location=here] \startcombination[distance=2mm,after=,nx=2,ny=1,location=middle] \startcontent \composedcollector{Upper} \stopcontent \startcontent \composedcollector{Lower} \stopcontent \stopcombination \stopplacefigure -- Bruce Horrocks Hampshire, UK ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : [email protected] / https://mailman.ntg.nl/mailman3/lists/ntg-context.ntg.nl webpage : https://www.pragma-ade.nl / https://context.aanhet.net (mirror) archive : https://github.com/contextgarden/context wiki : https://wiki.contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
