Hi Wolfgang, and Joerg, Actually with your code and using numberstopper instead of stopper your example works fine here, too. So the right command is \setupcaption[figure][numberstopper={:}] and not what I wrote before (which works in mkii, though…). Actually the command used by Joerg, that is \setupcaptions[numberstopper={:}] works also.
