In public places/porta potties, I just hold my shirt under my chin. I empty in the standing position if I'm using a porta potty or on a train engine. Otherwise, I kneel to empty.

My shirts are not very long, but my bag is. Coloplast 15821. If needed, I can put the edge of my shirt on top of my bag. I like a longer bag because it is much easier to empty while standing.
