Dear Mikael, thanks for your reply! Indeed, one has to add this second specifier, but only middle produces a sensible result. Both top and bottom override the outermargin, so there is probably something wrong.
Regarding \setupfloatcaption and \setupcation, there is no difference. In base/mkiv/strc-flt.mkvi you can find the following definitions: \let\setupcaption \setupfloatcaption \let\setupcaptions\setupfloatcaption Cheers, Henri On 08/31/2016 09:59 AM, Mikael P.
