I want to use \bigcirc to encircle text.
Is there a way to do it.
Tia

if you're wiling to compensate for its depth:
\defineoverlay
[BigCirc]
[{\scale
[width=\overlaywidth]
{\setbox0\hpack{\bigcirc}\raise\dp0\box0}}]
\framed
[background=BigCirc,
% frame=off,
width=3cm,
height=3cm]
{test}
but bigcirc isn't meant for that
\startusableMPgraphic{MetaCirc}
draw fullcircle
xyscaled
(OverlayWidth-OverlayLineWidth,OverlayHeight-OverlayLineWidth)
withpen pencircle scaled OverlayLineWidth
withcolor OverlayColor ;
\stopusableMPgraphic
\defineoverlay[MetaCirc][\useMPgraphic{MetaCirc}]
\framed
[background=MetaCirc,
backgroundcolor=red,
frame=off,
rulethickness=1pt]
{test}
\framed
[background=MetaCirc,
backgroundcolor=blue,
rulethickness=.5pt]
{test}
is more flexibel in the end

Wow!
This certainly is not the noobie version!
All I wanted was to put a circle around a letter
for emphasis.
Thanks though

Anton,
it works as you intend:
\starttext
\startusableMPgraphic{MetaCirc}
draw fullcircle
xyscaled
(OverlayWidth-OverlayLineWidth,OverlayHeight-OverlayLineWidth)
withpen pencircle scaled OverlayLineWidth
withcolor OverlayColor ;
\stopusableMPgraphic
\defineoverlay[MetaCirc][\useMPgraphic{MetaCirc}]
a\dontleavehmode\framed
[background=MetaCirc,
backgroundcolor=red,
frame=off,
location=bottom,
rulethickness=1pt]
{b}c
\stoptext
Just in case it helps,
Pablo
