I think I should try to read the TeXbook (but I need time for this first).

This is exactly what I was looking for. But I had only “crop” in mind.

It’s a TeX primitive. From the TeXbook, chapter 20: * \ifdim (compares two dimensions) This is like \ifnum, but it compares two values. For example, to test whether the value of \hsize exceeds 100pt, you can say ‘\ifdim\hsize>100pt’. The definition of \ifnum, right above it, states: * \ifnum (compares two integers) The must be either ‘<’ or ‘=’ or ‘>’. The two integer numbers are compared to each other in the usual way, and the result is true or false accordingly.

[NTG-context] margintext and floats in the margin
Hi,
Is it possible to put some short notes in the margin, together with a float?
Below is an example, which puts the float on top of the text in the margin.
The option « stack=yes » works fine for the margintext when there is no float,
but it does not seems to be an option which puts the figure and margintext in a
sort of stack.
Thanks for any advice: Otared K.
% begin margintext-float.tex
\setuppapersize[A4][A4]
\setuplayout[
width=120mm,
leftmargin=25mm,rightmargin=50mm]
\setupmargindata[margintext]
[align=raggedright,
stack=yes,
location=outer,
style={\rm}]
\showframe
\startbuffer[sine]
numeric u ; u = 5mm ;
draw function (1,"x","1.5*sin(x)",0,710/113,.01) scaled u
withcolor transparent(1,.5,darkblue)
withpen pencircle scaled 2pt ;
\stopbuffer
\starttext
This is some text.\margintext{This is a remark in the margin.}
This is some more text.\margintext{This text is also in the margin.}
\startplacefigure[location=outermargin,number=no]
\scale[width=\rightmarginwidth]{\processMPbuffer[sine]}
\stopplacefigure
\stoptext
% end margintext-float.tex
