[NTG-context] A side by side float that takes advantage of the margin

2005-09-16 Thread Giuseppe Bilotta 
I have a situation when I have to put side by side two
floats (a table and figure). My current code is

\placetable[here][label]{caption}%
{\\placesidebyside
{table code}{figure code}
}

The problem is that sometimes the combined width of table
and figure is bigger than the textwidth. I would like the
combo to be centered across the page, not starting from the
left margin of the text and invading the right margin only.

How can I achieve this?

Have you tried \centerline  (may not work)?

 \placetable[here][label]{caption}%
   {\centerline{\placesidebyside{table code}{figure code}}}

It works, but it needs a \scantokens inside the centerline
because of the active stuff in the tables setups.

Thanks.

put 'm in buffers: 


\startbuffer[table]
...
\stopbuffer

\startbuffer[figure]
...
\figure

\placetable
   [here][label]
   {caption}
   {\centerline
  {\placesidebyside
 {\getbuffer[table]}
 {\getbuffer[figure]}}}
