Back in 2007 there was a discussion here on the list about whether context could do something like LaTeX’s float pages. http://www.mail-archive.com/search?l=ntg-context%40ntg.nl&q=subject%3A%22%5C%5BNTG%5C-context%5C%5D+LaTeX+float+pages+in+ConTeXt%22&x=0&y=0
In short these are designated pages that LeTeX puts in to collect abundant top- and here-floats. There can -- in contrast to contex’s default=page -- be more than one float on such a page and there is no running text. In a LaTeX-setup correcponding to: %\setupfloats[nlines=15] \setupfloat[figure][default={here,top,bottom,page}] \starttext \section{First Section} \input zapf \placefigure {Blah} {\externalfigure[figurename][width=5.0in, height=3.0in]} \placefigure {Blah} {\externalfigure[figurename][width=5.0in, height=3.5in]} \placefigure {Blah} {\externalfigure[figurename][width=5.0in, height=3.5in]} \placefigure {Blah} {\externalfigure[figurename][width=5.0in, height=3.3in]} \placefigure {Blah} {\externalfigure[figurename][width=5.0in, height=3.3in]} \section{Second Section} \input zapf \input zapf \input zapf \stoptext pages 2 and 3 wouldn’t have body text on them. Is there a possibility to have context remove body text from pages with floats when the space falls short of a certain number of lines? Hans mentioned nlines in the old thread, but commenting it in doesn’t seem to have any effect.
