Hi Reza,

I don’t know whether this is a bug or a feature.

But this document might achieve what (I guess) you want (as you wrote
yourself):

 \definelayer[MyLayer]
    \setlayer[MyLayer][x=0cm,y=4.5cm]
    {\externalfigure[cow][width=2cm]}
    \setupbackgrounds[page][background=MyLayer]
  \starttext
  \dorecurse{5}{\input knuth}
  \stoptext

I wasn’t able to reproduce this.

Placing \showframe before of after \setupbackgrounds in the previous
document, states (http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Layers#State) work fine.

I hope it helps,


Pablo
