Hi,

in a multi column layout I want to place a figure at a fixed position.
Inserting a floating object at a fixed position doesn't make any sense,
but I need the correct caption (number) for the graphic. Sadly
\placefigure fails with

[..]
todo            : flush notes
todo            : enable notes
! Missing number, treated as zero.

                                                  }
...
l.16 \stopcolumnset

?

Is this a bug or am I misusing the macro too much?
Example code at the end of this mail.
