[NTG-context] presets for setlayerframed
Hi, Is it possible to set 'presets' for the framed settings of \setlayerframed? For example: \definelayer[text] \definelayer[annotate] \setupbackgrounds[text][background={text,foreground,annotate}] \starttext Testing layers: \setlayerframed[annotate][x=1cm,y=1cm][frame=off, align=middle] {\input ward \par} \setlayerframed[annotate][x=1cm,y=4cm][frame=off, align=middle] {\input tufte \par} \stoptext I don't want to repeat the `frame=off, align=middle` setting everytime (in may actual usecase, these are much more complicated settings). How can I do that?

Re: [NTG-context] RAL colours
Am 2015-04-04 um 22:00 schrieb Pavneet Arora pavneet_ar...@waroc.com: This is great insight into the printing world. Of course, Pantone has a dominant position on this continent at least, but as you stated, its proprietary nature keeps the palette from being distributed easily. The same is probably true for RAL. Be aware that RAL is no color system, but just an arbitrary and historically grown collection. In this regard it’s even worse than X11 colors. There’s also RAL design system, that would be better, but it’s still copyrighted and not suitable for CMYK or RGB devices. See e.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAL_colour_standard http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAL-Farbe Conversions of RAL colors (that are defined in CIE L*a*b) are just approximations for one special RGB color space, most probably sRGB, and can’t cover everything, since every color space is rather limited. Conversions of L*a*b or any RGB colors into CMYK depend on several parameters (rendering intent, GCR/UCR), because CMYK color spaces are generally quite small, and you can hit the same color spot with different mixtures of CMYK inks. So the question remains: if the X11 colourspace is found inadequate, is there another one that we might look for inspiration to create decent spot colours for document processing? Even if RAL colours are used for varnish, does that mitigate the use of their RGB values for other paints? Note, that I am not seeking exact calibration of colours, say for branding across different media; just a more expressive palette for print applications. Unfortunately, I don't have access to the Adobe products that you mention, and in any case would just want a convenient set of colours inside ConTeXt to create documents on the fly. For this type of work, are there any other open source palettes that we might look towards? Spot colors for printing rely on manufacturers that produce those inks/paints. The existing palettes are defined by (or in cooperation with) manufacturers. There exists nothing like open source paint recipes, AFAIK, so it would make no sense to define an open source (i.e. freely licensed) palette/system of spot colors. Of course it’s possible to define a system of (anyhow) matching colors. But that’s so much a matter of taste and application that I wouldn’t start with such an enterprise. There are some good online tools that help you finding matching design colors, at least for (s)RGB, e.g. Adobe Kuler or paletton.com. If you need spot colors for printing, you need a (digital or physical) palette from the manufacturers.

[NTG-context] alphabetically ordered notes
Hans, as you told me to remind you latter, here you have the proposal for alphabetically ordered footnotes: \setuplanguage[en][patterns={en,agr}] \setuppapersize[A7] \setupbodyfont[dejavu, 12pt] \definenote[dict] \setupnote[dict][n=2,rule=off, split=strict, inbetween=\hskip1.5em] \setupnotation[dict][width=broad, number=no] \starttext Πρῶτον δεῖ θέσθαι τί ὄνομα\dict{ὄνομα, -ατος, τό: noun} καὶ τί ῥῆμα\dict{ῥῆμα, -ατος, τό: verb}, ἔπειτα τί ἐστιν ἀπόφασις\dict{ἀπόφασις, -εως, ἡ: negation} καὶ κατάφασις\dict{κατάφασις, εως, ἡ: affirmation} καὶ ἀπόφανσις\dict{ἀπόφανσις, -εως, ἡ: statement} καὶ λόγος.
