Re: [NTG-context] Framed text split over multiple pages
Is there a simple way to split a large \startframedtext environment over multiple pages. It doesn't work out of the box and I didn't find any option make it work in the wiki nor in the documentation I read. Use backgrounds or textbackgrounds.

Thanks Hans. I saw it already, but I couldn't get the frame to appear
around the text.
Can you show me the textbackground equivalent that has page breaks to
the following that I have been using?
\definestartstop
[SomeFramedText]
[before={
\crlf
\setupbackground[frame=on,
before=\blank,
after=\blank,
corner=round,
topoffset=0.5cm,
leftoffset=0.5cm,
rightoffset=0.5cm,
bottomoffset=0.5cm]
\startbackground
},
after={
\stopbackground
\crlf
},
commands={\setupalign[yes]},
style=italic]
