== Combinations are ConTeXt's way to align several pictures (preferrably at same size):==
<texcode>
\startcombination[x*y]%% x=columns, y=rows
{something}{caption} ...
...
\stopcombination
</texcode>
or using the newer interface:
<texcode>
\startcombination [nx=3, ny=2] %% 3 columns, 2 rows
\startcontent something \stopcontent
\startcaption caption \stopcaption
\startcontent something \stopcontent
\startcaption caption \stopcaption
\startcontent something \stopcontent
\startcaption caption \stopcaption
\startcontent something \stopcontent
\startcaption caption \stopcaption
\startcontent something \stopcontent
\startcaption caption \stopcaption
\startcontent something \stopcontent
\startcaption caption \stopcaption
\stopcombination
</texcode>
means:
You define, how much figures in columns * rows you'd like to align.
You must provide one "figure something" (e.g. an <{{cmd>|externalfigure</cmd>}}) and a caption for every "cell". The sample, from the manual, shows how to define a caption for the whole group and use it as float (see [[Floating Objects]]): <context source=yes>\useMPlibrary [dum] %% sample images \startplacefigure [title=An example of a combination] \startcombination [nx=3, ny=2] \startcontent \externalfigure [dummy] \stopcontent \startcaption a \stopcaption \startcontent \externalfigure [dummy] \stopcontent \startcaption b \stopcaption \startcontent \externalfigure [dummy] \stopcontent \startcaption c \stopcaption \startcontent \externalfigure [dummy] \stopcontent \startcaption d \stopcaption \startcontent \externalfigure [dummy] \stopcontent \startcaption e \stopcaption \startcontent \externalfigure [dummy] \stopcontent \startcaption f \stopcaption \stopcombination\stopplacefigure</context> == Floatcombinations == When combination contain floats, the command {{cmd|startfloatcombination}} is used. Here an example using float combinations as well as subfloatnumbering that creates subfigures sharing a mutual figure prefix and an individual subfigure designator (e.g. figure 1a), figure 1b, etc.). <context source=yes>\useMPlibrary [dum] %% sample images \startplacefigure [location=none] %\startsubfloatnumbering % This does not work! \startfloatcombination [nx=2, ny=1] \startplacefigure [title=Left, reference=fig:left] \externalfigure \stopplacefigure \startplacefigure [title=Right, reference=fig:right] \externalfigure \stopplacefigure \stopfloatcombination %\stopsubfloatnumbering % This does not work!\stopplacefigure
== Setup ==
There is <{{cmd>|setupcombinations</cmd> }} command. [[Category:Graphics]][[Category:Text elements]]
== Referencing ==
This would produce something like 'figure 2.4d'. The content of the second parameter simply gets appended to the end of the figure's reference-number, thus the example above would still work even if the caption would be 'd) An awesome subfigure'.
