some questions about logo and margin background.

some questions about logo and margin background.

[lihb]

Hi,
  I have two question, I 'm not sure this is the right place to ask,
apologize for that.

   1st question: I wish to put a small logo at the footer at everypage
so I try to write a tex as below:

\usemodule[pre-general]

\setuppapersize
  [S6][S6]

\setuplayout
  [width=fit,
   height=fit,
   header=32pt,
   footer=32pt]

\setupfootertexts[\bf\ss{test}][\bf\ss{\date}]

\def\RedHatLogo%
  {\externalfigure[shadowman-32.png][type=png]}

\definelogo
  [small logo] [footer] [middle]
  [command=\RedHatLogo,state=start]

\starttext
\chapter{test}

\placelogos[small logo]

\stoptext

and I found that the shadowman logo did not show up..
How do I make a .png file show up at corner or bottom of every pages?

   2nd question: change the background of margin
I have a rightmargin with

\startuniqueMPgraphic{test}
  picture p ; p := btex TEST etex rotated 90 ;
  setbounds p to boundingbox p enlarged 1pt ;
  draw p withcolor 0.8white ;
  currentpicture := currentpicture
      xysized (\overlaywidth,\overlayheight) ;
\stopuniqueMPgraphic
\defineoverlay[test][\uniqueMPgraphic{test}]

\setupbackgrounds
  [text]
  [rightmargin]
  [background=test]

which is a word "TEST" with grey color and white background,
how to change the background color?
I had try 'fill p withcolor darkcyan ;'
but the background of margin is still white.

Thanks.

The option middle does not work. I tested all the [footer] locations, but
middle does not show even if the \setupfootertext is commented

You do not need to put \placelogos[]. Any logo defined with state=start will
be printed on each page.

As far as I know Pdftex does not support png-files with colors. So please
test your presentation with a black and white figure.

It might help to get the layout of your page correct to place the command
\showframe after \starttext

I am no wizzard with Metapost. However you might try to save the boundingbox
information into a new path and fill this path with a color. Colors have to
be defined in the preamble. So you will have to tell Metapost what you mean
with 'darkcyan'.

No, that works. I use it for book covers.
