Hi,
If scale option for a figure is set, \externalfigure does not honor the
width and the height parameters. For example
\externalfigure[cow][width=1cm, height=3cm, scale=750]
gives a figure which has the usual aspect ratio.
I know that settings scale=... along with width and height does not make
sense. But, in one of my project, I set
\setupexternalfigures[scale=750]
as that makes sense for most of the figures, and if I try to use
\externalfigure[cow][width=1cm, height=3cm]
then the aspect ratio of the figures does not change.
Not sure if this should be classified as a bug, but I am posting it here
in case anyone else encounters the same issue and needs to know how to
override this behavior:
\externalfigure[cow][width=1cm, height=3cm, scale=]
if needed you can use an abstraction:
\starttext
\defineexternalfigure[whatever][width=3cm,height=4cm]
\defineexternalfigure[another] [scale=500]
\externalfigure[cow]
\externalfigure[cow][whatever]
\externalfigure[cow][another]
\stoptext
