Re: [NTG-context] width of definetextbackground
Hi again, is there another approach (I didn't find an appropriate one in the documentations) to define a text block with a width larger than the actual text width? such a text block should be able to go over several page and be able to handle left and right pages (that is at the right page I want 2cm more for the right side and at left pages I want 2 cm more for the left side)? I appreciate any hint where to look for.

Re: [NTG-context] width of definetextbackground
Hi Hans, hi guys,
thanks for your answer, but, at least in my ConTeXt installation, it
does not affect the width of the textbackground (see example 1).
I also tried other approaches to set the width of a textbackground
being larger than the actual text width. So far I solved it using
\startnarrower.
However when a page break happens within the textbackground ConTeXt
does not set it properly. The dimensions of the defined textbackground
are correct. however you will see the color of the background only at
the first page but not after the page break. below an example (example
2).
Similar happens when I have double sided pages.
do you have an idea how to fix this issue?
Thanks!
Armin

[NTG-context] width of definetextbackground
Hallo, I am wondering if there is an option in \definetextbackground to get the output over the entire width of a page? I mean to go over the width of the \textwidth (for example like \setlayout[width=\textwidth+\outermargintotal])? I played with \setuplayout before calling textbackground, but it did not work perfectly since the layout of the text after \definetextbackground was changed as well; \setuplayout[reset] before stopping the textbackground did not help. I read the solutions proposed by Aditya but they did not help. Have you any ideas how to get it?
