OK,

after a pm from Mojca concerning my previous question I decided to look
into the layers mechanism.

It won't work for me - just nothing shows up.

What am I doing wrong?

Here's a minimal example:

\starttext
\definelayer[title][x=105mm,y=20mm]
\setlayer[title]{This is the title.}
\stoptext

(I'd also like to be able to anchor the title so that (105mm,20mm) are
the coordinates of the center, not the lower-left corner etc.  How to do
that?)


\flushlayer[title]

etc (some styles in the distributions have examples)

Thanks; and what exactly does preset do?

 
 \setupbackgrounds[page][background=title]

So are layers always used as a background?  This seems strange, since
I want my document to consist *only* from layers;)...
