Remove “position=yes” when you want the layer on a certain position on the page
but don’t
expect the text to flow around the layer.

[NTG-context] issue with layers and layouts
Dear list,
I have the following sample and two issues that I must solve:
\showframe\setuplayout[margin=20mm, width=fit, topspace=45mm,
bottomspace=25mm,
height=fit]
\definelayout[first][topspace=70mm, bottomspace=30mm]
\definelayer[avoidasfloat][x=0mm, y=0mm, hoffset=8mm, voffset=101mm,
location={right,bottom}, state=start]
\setlayer[avoidasfloat]{\startMPcode
draw (0mm,0mm)--(55mm,0mm) ;
draw (0mm,0mm)--(0mm,-86mm) ;
draw (0mm,-86mm)--(55mm,-86mm) ;
draw (55mm,-86mm)--(55mm,0mm) ;
\stopMPcode
}
\setupbackgrounds[page][background={avoidasfloat}]
\starttext
\dorecurse{40}{\input knuth\par}
\stoptext
First, the layout is right on the first two pages, but it is wrong from
page three. The text doesn’t reach the bottom frame.
I have the info on multiple layers from the wiki (it isn’t a complete
example, though). After Wolfgang’s reply last Friday, I spend hours
searching on the mailing list trying to find relevant information to
know what I was doing wrong.
If this isn’t a bug, what am I missing here?
My second question is about the layer: is there no way to force the text
to avoid it as if it were a float?
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo

Many thanks for your reply, Luigi.
If I don’t get it wrong, if I define a layout for the first page, I have
to define it for even and odd pages, haven’t I?.
My second question is about the layer: is there no way to force the text
to avoid it as if it were a float?
hm what do you want to avoid ?
I want the text flow to avoid the layer avoidasfloat as it avoids the
figures.
\definelayer[avoidasfloat][x=0mm, y=0mm, hoffset=8mm,
voffset=101mm,location={right,bottom}, state=start]
\setlayer[avoidasfloat]{\startMPcode
draw (0mm,0mm)--(55mm,0mm) ;

Layer has text inside in the sample above. I’d like to have it as a float.
