Hi,

backgroundscreen is no longer working here, apparently since the beta 
2015-04-12.

\starttext
% \setupbackgrounds [page] [background=color,backgroundcolor=lightgray]
\setupbackgrounds [page] [background=screen,backgroundscreen=.8]
\input knuth
\stoptext


If I use the pack-rul.mkiv from 2015-04-08 it works again.

Is it deprecated now, or is this just a bug?

it's definitely and on purpose gone .. i kept it for a few years but not it's really gone in mkiv

so just use backgroundcolor=gray (or some shade)

(long long ago - dvi times - the distinction was there because we could fake gray using small periods so it was a different background plugin)

(just like nowadays \encoding[utf] is not needed and colors are enabled by default)
