True: The next one
I've a problem with the pagenumber on header, but I can use
\setupbackgrounds[page][background={foreground,bg}]

\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]
\definelayer[bg][x=0mm,y=-3mm,width=\dimexpr(\paperwidth+3mm),height=\dimexpr(\paperheight+6mm)]

\setlayer[bg]{\externalfigure[#1][height=\dimexpr(\paperheight+6mm)]}
\strut
\page

Great, I didn’t know \offset (or I forgot)!
This way it’s much easier!
Thank you very much!
Of course, the \offset stuff works in a macro, but not postponing. But
I can live with three lines of code per insertion.

* I don’t care if I must define "on page x" or "on the next right page
after the current paragraph".
- The only way for full-page pictures (i.e. bleeding over the page)
that I know of is layers.
- The only way to interrupt a story with full-page content that I know
of is postponing.
(makeups were a dead end so far - maybe they can help to get to a
right page withput using \page[right])
While each works for itself, I can’t get layers working within
postponing.
And when that works, I need to wrap it in a macro, since I alway need
to define and postpone three sequential pages.
Without postponing, this works:
--- *** ---
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]
\definelayer[bg][x=0mm,y=-3mm,width=\dimexpr(\paperwidth+3mm),height=
\dimexpr(\paperheight+6mm)]
%\definemakeup[rightpage][page=right]
\def\DoublePic#1{
%\startmakeup[rightpage] % error!
\page[right]
\resetlayer[bg]
\setlayer[bg]{\externalfigure[#1][height=\dimexpr(\paperheight+6mm)]}
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=bg]
\strut
%\stopmakeup
% empty back of the first picture, since it’s printed on transparent
paper
%\startmakeup[rightpage] % error!
\page[right]
\resetlayer[bg]
\setlayer[bg]{\externalfigure[#1-hg][height=\dimexpr(\paperheight
+6mm)]}
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=bg]
\strut
%\stopmakeup
\page
}
\starttext
\input tufte
\DoublePic{koe}
\input knuth
\stoptext
--- *** ---
This doesn’t:
--- *** ---
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]
\definelayer[bg][x=0mm,y=-3mm,width=\dimexpr(\paperwidth+3mm),height=
\dimexpr(\paperheight+6mm)]
\def\DoublePicAt#1#2{
\startpostponing[#2]
\page[right] % tried also makeups...
\resetlayer[bg]
\setlayer[bg]{\externalfigure[#1][height=\dimexpr(\paperheight+6mm)]}
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=bg]
\strut
\page[right]
\setuppagenumber[state=start]
\resetlayer[bg]
\setlayer[bg]{\externalfigure[#1-back][height=\dimexpr(\paperheight
+6mm)]}
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=bg]
\strut
\page
\stoppostponing
}
\starttext
\DoublePicAt{hacker}{5}
\dorecurse{30}{
\section{Knuth \recurselevel}
\input knuth
}
\stoptext
--- *** ---
Can you show me a way to use layers within postponing, please?

Let’s resume:

Postponing (\startpostponing) works well for that, but I need to
switch
off page numbering on two of that 3 pages - as far as I tried,
\setuppagenumbering as well as \setuppagenumber doesn’t work within
postponed sections.
Further, these pages contain full-page pictures, i.e. I need them
bleeding off the paper.
Normally, \setlayer works well for that, but I couldn’t get layers
working within postponed sections.
Since I need these interruptions several times in a very similar
way, I
\def’ed that postponing stuff as a macro, but get errors that point
to
expanding problems (I never get those).
I’d appreciate some pointers in which direction I should
think/investigate further.
E.g.
- are there alternatives to postponing? perhaps multi-page floats
(but
at defined pages)?
- is there a possibility for bleeding full-page pictures without
layers?
- can it work at all to change page numbering within a postponed
page span?
maybe
\startmakeup[page]
page a
\stopmakeup
Good hint. I setup:
\definemakeup[rightpage][page=right]
\definemakeup[leftpage][page=left]
and get empty right/left pages from within my macro.
Can I control if the content after a markup starts on a right or left
page?
Further, if I try to use postponing in a macro, I get errors:
--- *** ---
Runaway argument?
\dorecur\section{K\ETC. \stoppostponing

I guess I need to unexpand something?
My example:

Oh, of course, Philipp Gesang recently reminded me.
I would like to use \startpostponing[right], but fixed pages are ok.
This works:
\starttext
\startpostponing[3]
\section{Tufte}
\input tufte
\strut
\page
\strut
\page
\section{More Tufte}
\input tufte
\page
\stoppostponing
\dorecurse{30}{
\section{Knuth \recurselevel}
\input knuth
}
\stoptext
But if I try to put graphics in layers within the postponing, I get
empty pages.
Further, if I put that postponing stuff into a macro (see below), I
get errors about \par ending the buffer. I guess I’d need some
unexpanding, but where?
Without \def, I get 2 (instead of 3) empty pages, but with page
numbers. I need to switch off the pagenumbering for the first two
pages (because it’s a transparent page that doesn’t count); it’s
probably also a problem fixed-page postponing...
\def\DoublePicAt#1#2{
\startpostponing[#2]
\setuppagenumbering[state=stop]\setuppagenumber[state=stop]
\resetlayer[bg]
\setlayer[bg]{\externalfigure[#1][height=\dimexpr(\paperheight+6mm)]}
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=bg]
\strut
\page %[right] doesn’t work
\strut
\page
\setuppagenumber[state=start]
\resetlayer[bg]
\setlayer[bg]{\externalfigure[#1-hg][height=\dimexpr(\paperheight
+6mm)]}
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=bg]
\strut
\page
\setuppagenumbering[state=start]
\stoppostponing
}
Thanks in advance!

Now, the publisher would like to move the picture pages in the middle of

How can I achieve that?
I’d also appreciate enhancements to my macro above.

Thank you very much in advance!
