Re: [NTG-context] Placing text in the margin of a header or the top right corner of a page
I think I see what you mean. It disappeared after I tossed the box 1mm to the
right with adjusting the x position:
change
x=180mm
to
x=181mm
Is that it?

Re: [NTG-context] Placing text in the margin of a header or the top right corner of a page
Fascinating. Thanks a lot. That is more than I hoped for, and was easy to adapt
to what I wanted.
One small issue: There is a tiny gap between the black layer box and the right
margin (in white) that doesn't even disappear when I increase hoffset.
Any chance to make that disappear, too?
Thanks again -

Smells like Layers to me. Try this, for starters:
\definelayer[mybg][x=180mm, y=0mm,width=3cm, height=3cm,repeat=yes]
\setlayer[mybg][hoffset=0cm, voffset=0cm]{\framed[frame=on, width=3cm,

Dear All, I am trying to place a framed text in the top right corner of each page of a screen document and it looks like (cont-eni) some invocation of \setupheadertexts might do the job.

One other thing. Your \definebackground and \defomestartstop works fine in the minimal example you gave, but if I take it into my environment of my existing project and replace my old \definestartstop with that, I still have the same problem of the mangled box with no visible text in it. -- Kip Warner -- Software Engineer OpenPGP encrypted/signed mail preferred http://www.thevertigo.com signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___

Is there a prescribed way to include attachments? Attachments usually survive, but they may not exceed a certain size limit.

[NTG-context] Natural Tables---Including a bit of cell style in a \define
I am creating documentation labeling the circuits of electrical and network
panels for a project of mine.
Enclosed is a minimal example.
What I would like is to define two macros: \unused and \spare (\unused
referring to a circuit with no breaker installed, while \spare referring to a
circuit with a breaker, but no load). I wish these definitions to not only
include the represented text and font directives, i.e., {\tt [Unused]}, but also
shade the cell in a background color. However, I cannot seem to figure out how
to do that. Including the `[background=color,backgroundcolor=gray]' in the
\define seems to be expanded back simply as text.
Any suggestions?
advTHANKSance.
