Dear list members,
I am struggling with floats in a two-column layout. I understand that there are
three up-to-date mechanisms for columns: columnsets, pagecolumns and pagegrids.
However, in neither setup I succeed in producing some extra vertical whitespace
after the float if a caption is omitted (i.e. location=none in \setupcaption).
My example:
\definepapersize[square21][width=21cm,height=21cm]
\setuppapersize[square21][square21]
\definecolumnset[Two][n=2]
\setupcolumnset[Two]
\setupcaption[intermezzo][location=none,spaceafter=1cm]
% no value for
spaceafter seems to work
\setuptolerance[verytolerant,stretch]
\setupframedtexts[frame=on,corner=round,width=local]
\setuplayout[grid=yes]
\starttext
\startcolumnset[Two]
\input knuth \par
\placeintermezzo[bottom][]{}
\startframedtext
\input tufte \par
\stopframedtext
\input knuth \par
\stopcolumnset
\stoptext
If 'columnset' is replaced everywhere by 'pagecolumns' or by 'pagegrid' through
a find-and-replace operation, the result remains identical.
Is it possible to insert more vertical white space after the intermezzo?
A secondary remark: \placeintermezzo always puts the framed text at the top of
the next column, no matter whether the parameter is top or bottom. But this is
not a big deal.
