This section describes various ways to embed pictures in documents. == In Text == You can directly place a figure in a text using <tt>\externalfigure[cow]</tt>. If you want to align it not to the baseline, but lower you can try whether <tt>\bbox{\externalfigure[cow]}</tt> does the right thing, otherwise you have to tweek <tt>\smash{\lower24pt\hbox{\externalfigure[cow]}}</tt> == Flowing Text == <context source=yes>\setuppapersize[A5]\setupexternalfigures[location={local,default}]\starthanging{\externalfigure[cow][width=4cm]}\input tufte\stophanging</context> {{cmd|starthanging}} is influenced by {{cmd|setuphanging}}, but doesn’t take parameters itself.It’s currently broken in MkII (here in the garden), but works with MkIV. To right-align the image: <texcode>\setuppapersize[A5]\setupexternalfigures[location={local,default}]\setuphanging[location=right]\starthanging{\externalfigure[cow][width=4cm]} \input tufte\stophanging</texcode> There are more options (distance can even be negative): <texcode>\setuppapersize[A5]\setupexternalfigures[location={local,default}]\setuphanging[location=right,n=2,distance=1cm]\starthanging{\externalfigure[cow][width=4cm]} \input tufte\stophanging</texcode> Parameter <tt>n</tt> defines how many lines should flow around, useful for pictures with whitespace below. This replaces undocumented {{cmd|starthangaround}} command that might exist [http://source.contextgarden.net/tex/context/base/cont-new.mkiv?search=hangaround in the source], if the wiki isn’t updated yet. Also read about [[Combinations]]. == Hyperlinks == This example makes a picture interactive; when clicked, it opens a browser to the given URL: <texcode>\setupinteraction[state=start] \starttextThis is a cow: \goto{\externalfigure[cow][height=2ex]}[url(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cow)]\stoptext </texcode> == Full Page == * See [[Simple Cover Page]] == [[Floating Objects]] ==
=== Enlarged, Shaded Background ===
To place a figure in the right margin with a shaded background that is slightly larger than the figure (to give a bit of space):
<texcode>
\setupcolors[state=start]
\placefigure[right,high,none]{}{\framed[frame=on, offset=10pt, framecolor=lightgray,
background=color, backgroundcolor=lightgray]%
{\externalfigure[sample/cow.pdf][scale=500]}}
\input knuth
</texcode>
Move unclear text to talk page
<texcode>\externalfigure[mylogo]</texcode>
Floats are numbered and placed by ConTeXt, with a configurable (and optional) caption.
You find more about floats ([[Floating Objects]]) in the manual.
