Hi Robert, As far as I know this is not (yet) possible in MkIV. Depends on Hans if he adds it. See the conversation "Placefigure inner/outer" from August. (http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.tex.context/83680/focus=83684)
@Hans/Wolfgang: any idea it will be added in the (near) future? Cheers, Tim 2013/9/14 R.
