hmm,
\frame can be slow.
Maybe something like \vbox to4cm{\hsize=5cm ..} ?
Well, I'm already in a frame so it's not a problem.

Ah, didn't know that. I couldn't even tell from the sources,
since it uses enclosing box dimensions and not page or paper
sizes. I suspect the logic is broken at the page level too
though, let me explain why.
Currently, if I understand the code correctly, factor=fit
expands the figure to have its major direction fit, while
factor=max expands the figure to have its minor direction
fit.
Instead, the behavior I would expect from fit (resp. max) is
for the *expansion ratio* to be the minimum (resp. maximum)
of the expansion ratios in the two directions (not the sizes
in those directions, but the ratio between the sizes of the
figure and the container). The difference is noticeable when
the container and contained have different aspect ratios.
Consider for example a 20x30mm figure in a 50x150mm page
(strange numbers, just used to show what I mean): with the
current code, using 'fit' would consider the largest
dimension (30) and thus calculate a factor of 150/30 = 5,
but this gives us an image which is 100x150mm, i.e. an image
that doesn't fit! Whereas, if we computed the ratios 50/20 =
2.5 and 150/30 = 5, we would know that the ratio to be
picked was 2.5 in 'fit' and 5 in 'max'.
Or I misintepreting the meaning of 'fit' and 'max'?
an alternative is:
\framed[width=5cm,height4cm]
{\externalfigure[mill.png][maxwidth=4cm,maxheight=5cm,width=10cm]}
i.e. setting the maximum values
I hadn't thought about using width and maxwidth (and
maxheight) at the same time, thanks. Of course, I'd rather
have 'fit' and 'max' usable in boxes :)

be implemented, with earlier check for the factor value
(fit, max, broad), since the logic selecting which dimension
to scale depends on the kind of scaling.

Re: [NTG-context] factor=fit images don't fit
Hi,
What version of ConTeXt are you using? I just noticed a difference a
few days ago between the version installed by TeXLive 2007 and the
April 2007 release (tested locally through contextgarden) placing
an image into a natural table, using factor=max. I'll post an
example in a separate thread shortly.
Regards,
Brian
