Hello dear All,

the following MWE works best:


\definelayer[LAY]
\starttext

\setlayerframed[LAY]
    [x=0pt,y=20pt]
    [frame=on,
     width=300pt,
     align={right,}]   % tolerant}]
    {\input ward }
\flushlayer[LAY]
\stoptext


Now, it could have a favourable effect on designing a page if the height of a 
text
of certain width could be calculated in advance, depending of the font.
Is there a way?

As I fear, TeX's means "\setbox" woun't work with aligned texts.

Can you give more details, I have no idea what you mean with aligned texts
(layers?).

Hi Wolfgang,

With "aligned texts" I thought of "align={right,}]" in the above example or
text which is "flushed right":

\setbox0=\vbox{... somehow flushed text ...} wount work, i.e \wd0 or \ht0
will both result in 0. With "unflushed" text this means will work perfectly.

I have no idea where you get 0 (0pt?).

\starttexdefinition NextboxDimension
  \starttabulate
  \NC Width  \EQ \the\nextboxwd \NC\NR
  \NC Height \NC \the\nextboxht \NC\NR
  \stoptabulate
\stoptexdefinition

\starttext

\dowithnextboxcs
  \NextboxDimension
  \vbox
    {\samplefile{ward}}

\dowithnextboxcs
  \NextboxDimension
  \vbox
    {\setupalign[flushright]
     \samplefile{ward}}

\dowithnextboxcs
  \NextboxDimension
  \vbox
    {\hsize=200pt
     \samplefile{ward}}

\dowithnextboxcs
  \NextboxDimension
  \vbox
    {\hsize=200pt
     \setupalign[flushright]
     \samplefile{ward}}

\stoptext
