Thanks Hans, this was most helpful!
I have another question, though:
After looking at various 'built-in' documentation styles I am wondering about the best way
to modify one of these. I couldn't find any documentation besides how to use the
styles as they are. So, if I want to make (say) the "green style" blue and with smaller buttons,
are there setups for this? If yes, do I learn about these by looking at the source, or, if no,
do I copy the source and try my best to mess around with it?

Hello,
I was trying to use \startfiguretext to place a second graphics within the figuretext. This makes the main graphics disappear:
\starttext
\startfiguretext
[left]
{none}
{\externalfigure[graph1][width=2.8in]}
text text more text
\placefigure
[here]
{none}
{\externalfigure[graph2][width=1.5in]}
\stopfiguretext
\stoptext
The result should look like
graph1 text
graph1 text
graph1 graph2
graph1 graph2
but graph1 1 doesn't show anymore (not even on another page).
Is this a mistake of mine, should I use something else (tables? -- never tried so far),
or a missing feature?
You want the 'impossible': both use the figure floater so the first one is forgotten when the second is encountered; tables are a solution, or maybe:
\useMPlibrary[dum] \setupcolors[state=start] \setuplayout[backspace=8cm,leftmargin=6cm,width=middle,cutspace=2cm]
\starttext
\placefigure [leftmargin,reset] {none} {\externalfigure[graph1][width=\leftmarginwidth]}
\input ward
\placefigure [here] {none} {\externalfigure[graph2][width=1.5in]}
\input hawking
\stoptext \useMPlibrary[dum] \setupcolors[state=start] \setuplayout[backspace=8cm,leftmargin=6cm,width=middle,cutspace=2cm]
\starttext
\placefigure [leftmargin,reset] {none} {\externalfigure[graph1][width=\leftmarginwidth]}
\input ward
\placefigure [here] {none} {\externalfigure[graph2][width=1.5in]}
\input hawking
\stoptext
The new web site is great. Now that I can see what the
manuals are about, I am condemned to try it all out. It has already cost me this afternoon :)
take a look at: details.pdf
