Hello Denis:

   Your ideas gave me a clue to a possible solution. It consists of
the following: while keeping the whole document in 2 column format, I
included each float object inside a one column paragraph as in:

   <\with|par-columns|1>
     <\float|float|t>
       \;
     </float>
   </with>

This is enough to put the object in one column and floating at the
same time.

   Very grateful for your help, Denis.

   Best regards

   Pablo S. Casas

PS: The use of floating objects give rise to tremendous waits of more
than 20 minutes (in a Intel Core 2 @ 2.13GHz fast computer), with
TeXmacs frozen each time there is some change in the document. As a
consequence I think floatings are not advisable for regular editing.
