Hi John,
the floattext is written by default in bold style, please look if you
changed it somewhere in your document by \setupcation[style=...] or
\setupcaption[figure][style=...]

\setupcaptions
[location=top,
spaceinbetween=0pt, % <-- your friend
style=bold,
width=max] % maybe fit?

On the garden it works OK.
Also if you want to use a really different font, there should be no
problem saying
\setupcaptions[headstyle={\definedfont[your-special-font]}]

[NTG-context] Bolding the words "Figure 2-1"
I too am stuck in specification hell. The specifier is ovenamored of
stretching text and the like. I worked through that with the TeX/LaTeX macro
soul.sty.
My immediate problem is with putting the
caption of a table in a different font. Currently I have:
\setupcaptions[location=top,headstyle=bold,style=bold]
\placefigure[here][tab:comp]{Comparison of Corporate and
Government Bond Portfolios} {
etc.
---
Currently I get the caption in bold but the string "Figure 2-1" is not in
bold.
A second problem:
The designer asks for
Figure 2-1
Comparison of Corporate etc.
but I get:
---
Figure 2-1 Comparison of Corporate etc.
I can avoid \placefigure and hand code each caption of course but that
deprives me of the ability to float the figures.
Unfortunately they brought in the designer after I had already started work
(and cashed the deposit check.)
The first difficulty (typeface) is IMO the most critical.
