Further experimentation has found a partial solution. However, I am still
unable to get the chapter title line to stretch properly:
%works fine as is except that chapter title is hardcoded
%errors when hardcoded title is replaced with #2
%doesn't error when title is replaced with {#2} but title is not stretched
%number of closing }s determined by trial and error
\def\MyChapterCommand#1#2% #1 is number, #2 is text
{ \framed[frame=off,align=middle]
{{\hbox to \hsize {\ss\stretched{Chapter {#1}}}}
\par
{{\hbox to \hsize {\switchtobodyfont[20pt]{\ss\bf\stretched{My
Chapter Title}}}}}}}
\setuphead[chapter]
[command=\MyChapterCommand]
\starttext
\chapter{Test Chapter Title}
\input knuth
\stoptext

Subject: [NTG-context] \stretched in chapter titles in MKII
I am trying to stretch two lines of text to the same width for use as a
chapter head.
I have two major problems:
1. The second line of text is appended to the end of the first line instead
of being placed below it.
2. I get errors when using #1 and #2 as values, i.e {Chapter #1} and {#2}.
Because of these errors I have hardcoded the values in the example that
follows:
\def\MyChapterCommand#1#2% #1 is number, #2 is text
{\hbox to \hsize {\ss\stretched{Chapter 1}}
\par
\hbox to \hsize {\ss\bf\stretched{Test Chapter Title}}}
\setuphead[chapter]
[command=\MyChapterCommand]
\starttext
\chapter{Test Chapter Title}
\input knuth
\stoptext
