=Landscape Floats in a Portrait Document=
 
Wide tables, for example, can be turned and most likely will need to be put on a separate page.
<texcode>
= Floats and section headings =
 By default, section headings don't wrap "around" “around” floating objects. Instead, they will be moved down as far as needed to appear below the float. This behaviour can be controlled using the <tt>aligntitle</tt> option of the {{cmd|setupheads}} or {{cmd|setuphead}} commands.
= Captions =
 
To change the style of figure(table) captions, use {{cmd|setupcaptions}}.
To use a different (e.g. abbreviated) caption in the list of floats, you can do:
 
<texcode>
\startplacefigure[title={A rather long caption},list={A short caption}]
This is the content of the actual figure
\stopplacefigure
</texcode>
 
In MkII this was possible by:
<texcode>
{This is the content of the actual figure}
\stoptext
</texcode>
 
Or in more recent (circa November 2011 and later) versions of ConTeXt:
 
<texcode>
\startplacefigure[title={A rather long caption},list={A short caption}]
This is the content of the actual figure
\stopplacefigure
</texcode>
