I'm quite happy with the placement in general. The exact problem here is that if the \setupfloat[criterium=…] value is exceeded, it seems that ConTeXt adjusts the values “location” and “default” to place the float in the text. A solution would be to be able to state a fallback float class in case criterium is exceeded. Idea: \definefloat [marginfigure] [marginfigures] \definefloat [marginfigurefallback] [marginfiguresfallbacks] [marginfigure] \setupfloat [marginfigure] [criterium=\marginwidth, criteriumfallback=marginfigurefallback] This way full control is being maintained, since the float and caption style of the fallback class can be individually adjusted.
