Hi Wolfgang,
Thank you so much for that. It did work. And yes, I was wondering whether there
was a more elegant way of doing this. This way of setting and using variables
does not seem to be all that well documented; it's not in the ConTeXt Manual,
presumably because it is new, right?
I think I mostly worked it out, though, except for: What does this line mean:
set=\texsetup{titlepage}
that the setup names 'titlepage' will be invoked each time after you set
variables in this category so when you've set some titlepage properties
a titlepage will be generated

You have to change this to:
\blank[small]
\color[darkgray]{Commercial Confidence \hfill Version #4}
A cleaner way to set the values for the title page is \setvariables:
\startsetups titlepage
\startstandardmakeup[style=sans]
\blank[50mm]
\rightaligned{\bfd\getvariable{titlepage}{company}}
\textrule
\rightaligned{\tfc\color[darkgray]{\getvariable{titlepage}{title}}}
\blank[170mm]
\starttabulate[|plf{\tfa}|prf{\tfa}|]
\NC \tfa © Some Company Pty Ltd\NC
\getvariable{titlepage}{author} \NC\NR
\TB[small]
\NC \color[darkgray]{Commercial in Confidence} \NC \color[darkgray]{Version
\getvariable{titlepage}{version}} \NC\NR
\stoptabulate
\stopstandardmakeup
\stopsetups
\starttext
\startfrontmatter
\setvariables
[titlepage]
[ set=\texsetup{titlepage},
company={Company Name},
title={The Plan},
author={Dr Who, et al.},
version={0.1}]
\stopfrontmatter
\stoptext

Re: [NTG-context] Strange errors on using setupheader
Hi all, Hi Hans,
Thank you for the fix. Okay, so now I am on
ConTeXt ver: 2012.03.30 16:16 MKIV fmt: 2012.3.31 int: english/english
which does indeed fix the little problem I posted yesterday. However, I still
have one more issue. Again, I condensed it down to something very close to a
minimal example:
% Select A4 as the paper size
\setuppapersize[A4]
% A macro for the title page
\def\titlepage[#1][#2][#3][#4]{
\startstandardmakeup
\blank[50mm]
\rightaligned{\ss\tfd\bf\nohyphens{#1}}
\blank[2mm]\textrule[bottom]
\rightaligned{\ss{\tfc{\color[darkgray] {#2
\blank[170mm]
\ss\tfa\copyright\thinspace Some Company Pty Ltd \hfill #3 \par
\color[darkgray]\blank[small]
Commercial in Confidence \hfill Version #4
\stopstandardmakeup
}
\starttext
\startfrontmatter
\titlepage[Company Name][The Plan][Dr Who, et al.][0.1]
\completecontent
\page \chapter{Purpose and Scope}
\section[]{Purpose}
This document should be read in conjunction with bla bla bla...
\stopfrontmatter
\stoptext
This results in
29 >> \stopfrontmatter
30 \stoptext
31
}
\endgroup
l.29 \stopfrontmatter
If I remove the line
\color[darkgray]\blank[small]
from the \titlepage macro all works, which I find somewhat unexpected.
Could you please have a look at this?
Thank you.
Malte.

Hans,
No, everything works in the "(by now ancient) current" but is broken in the
beta. I am trying to switch to the beta as you suggested, but am being held up
by some errors, the first one of which is this

Malte.
