Re: [NTG-context] dotted line for \framed ?

[Willi Egger]

Hi,
humble, I was playing with this code. Yes there is a dotted line but 
above the text. Looking up the issue in the Metafun manual page 112 
results in the following solution:

\startuniqueMPgraphic{DottedFrame}
        pickup pencircle scaled 1.5pt ;
        path p ;
        p := unitsquare xscaled \overlaywidth yscaled \overlayheight ;
%       fill p withcolor .8white ;
        draw bottomboundary p dashed withdots withcolor .625red ;
        draw rightboundary p dashed withdots withcolor .625red ;
\stopuniqueMPgraphic
\defineoverlay[DotFrame][\uniqueMPgraphic{DottedFrame}]
\setupframedtexts[background=DotFrame,width=fit,frame=off,offest=3pt]
\starttext
   \framedtext{How nice!}
\stoptext

is there a command for \framed and \inframed
like for \setupunderbar[alternative=b]:
that gives a dotted (bottom) line?

You could do this by using a metpost graphic as background. I'm in a
hurry, so untested, but something similar should work.
\startuniqueMPgraphic{DottedFrame}
        draw (0,0) --(\overlaywidth,0) dashed withdots;
\stopuniqueMPgraphic
\defineoverlay[DottedFrame]{\uniqueMPgraphic{DottedFrame}}
\starttext
  \framed[frame=off,offset=overlay,background=DottedFrame]{How nice!}
\stoptext
