[NTG-context] Help on centering text inside the standard makeup
Hello! I have some problem centering the text inside the standardmakeup. The resulting alignment is centered, yes, but relative to the text block of the defined layout, and being a doublesided document, the left space is lesser then the right space (which is not what I wanted, as it's supposed to be the cover of a booklet). For example: % \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided] \showframe \starttext \startstandardmakeup \raggedcenter This should be the long title \stopstandardmakeup \input tufte \stoptext % The \showframe still shows the defined layout for the whole document. I'm reading from Layouts in Context that the standard makeup should “exclude text from the standard pagebody and its layout”. The other solution could using frames, layers and the backgrounds, but I'm pretty sure I'm missing something here and that using the makups is the right thing to do. Setting width=\paperwidth,height=\paperheight makes the thing worse. It's like the width starts at the text block of the defined layout. % \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided] \showframe \definemakeup[titlepage][width=\paperwidth, height=\paperheight,voffset=0mm,hoffset=0mm] \starttext \starttitlepagemakeup \raggedcenter \bfc This should be the long, long, very long title \stoptitlepagemakeup \input tufte \stoptext % Thanks in advance.

{\bfc This should be the long title}
