Let's again deal with an aspect of graphics. + +One of the strong points of \TEX\ is that it can deal with graphics +automatically, which means that you seldom have to tweak dimensions or placements +unless \unknown\ you're dealing with grids. In that case you need to make sure +that the height of graphics consistently match the height of lines (or multiples +of lines). It is for this purpose that the graphic inclusion macro has a \type +{grid} entry. + +We will illustrate its usage using a dedicated figure class where we have set the +space between figure and caption to zero. + +\startbuffer +\definefloat[tightfigure][tightfigures][figure] +\setupcaption[tightfigure][inbetween=] +\stopbuffer + +\typebuffer \getbuffer + +The \type {grid} parameter controls rounding of the height of a graphic in the +following way: + +\starttabulate + +\NC \type {yes} \NC safe rounding to an equal number of lines \NC \NR +\NC \type {fit} \NC tight rounding to an equal number of lines \NC \NR +\NC \type {height} \NC same as \type {yes} but incremented by linedepth \NC \NR +\stoptabulate + +On the next pages we demonstrate the effects of these settings.
