Floats are elements like tables or figures that are placed (and numbered) automatically by TeX.

Floats are ConTeXt's "base class" for everything that uses a \place... command (table, figure, own floats).

If you search options of e.g. \placeexternalfigure you must look after \placefloat in the manual! (same for \setup... etc.)

\placefloat[place]{caption}{some float}

place is one of: (PLEASE SOMEONE ADD DESCRIPTIONS!)

  • left
  • right
  • here
  • top
  • bottom
  • inleft
  • inright
  • inmargin
  • margin
  • page
  • opposite
  • always
  • force
  • tall
