If I use \overbar within \underbar, the same dy is used, i.e. in the

is too high:


\starttext

Yes, that is the right part to get started with. You could just copy the whole

rules:under:bardots), then do

   \definebar[underbardot][undergraphic][mp=rules:under:bardots]

There are backgroundoffset and frameoffset in framedtext ... not sure if they 
are inherited in text backgrounds. Or you can defining everything in metapost 
(but that may lose composability).

YES, #metoo


As it stands, you can nest \underbars inside \underbars and \overstrikes inside 
\overstrikes and \overbars inside \overbars, but no other combinations work. 
Interoperability between these (as well as \underdot, \underdash, \underrandom 
...) would be really cool.

Either with \bar or a nestable dy-shift version of textbackgrounds would be 
really handy sometimes. :)


\startbar[under,over,strikethrough] ... \stopbar ?

\barbar[top=single,bottom=double,mp=mp:swiggly]{text} ?

A nestable version of the existing bars would have the advantage that 
you can add bars one after the other.

If my understanding of https://source.contextgarden.net/node-rul.mkiv is

I would like to have this type of “complete” bar nesting as well. 

As it stands, you can nest \underbars inside \underbars and \overstrikes inside 
\overstrikes and \overbars inside \overbars, but no other combinations work. 
Interoperability between these (as well as \underdot, \underdash, \underrandom
