Ah, more undocumented features... :)
\definefloat [figureitem] [figureitems] [figure]
\setupcaption [figureitem] [numberconversion=character]
\startplacefigure [title=Cows]
\startfloatcombination[2*2]
\startplacefigureitem [title=alpha] \externalfigure [cow] [width=1cm]
\stopplacefigureitem
\startplacefigureitem [title=beta] \externalfigure [cow] [width=2cm]
\stopplacefigureitem
\startplacefigureitem [title=gamma] \externalfigure [cow] [width=3cm]
\stopplacefigureitem
\startplacefigureitem [title=delta] \externalfigure [cow] [width=4cm]
\stopplacefigureitem
\stopfloatcombination
\stopplacefigure
Two problems, though:
1. I tried "label=" in \setupcaption to suppress "Figure ". This does not work,
and looking at the source I do not see how to do this...
2. Missing is some way to reset the figureitem counter automatically with each
\startfloatcombination.
It looks as if it could be a nice feature to add new keywords like "before="
and "after=".
Maybe "beforeall=" and "afterall=", "beforefirst=" and "afterlast=", ...
I suppose that the above brings little advantage over the \definelabel solution
previously suggested.
