Thanks for he tip. However, I managed to get the desired effect by setting a positive background offset, zero left/right offset, and negative top offset, this worked fine foe background, but the negative part has no effect in textbackground, any ideas? \setupcolors[state=start] \setupbackground [background=color,backgroundcolor=lightgray, leftoffset=0cm,rightoffset=0cm, backgroundoffset=.5cm,topoffset=-.3cm, % the offset works here frame=on] \setuptextbackground [background=color,backgroundcolor=lightgray, leftoffset=0cm,rightoffset=0cm, backgroundoffset=.5cm,topoffset=-.3cm, % but not here frame=on] \starttext \startbackground \input tufte \stopbackground \vfill \starttextbackground \input tufte \stoptextbackground \stoptext Regards, Khaled -- Khaled Hosny Arabic localiser and member of Arabeyes.org team Free font developer [-- Attachment #1.2: Digital signature --] [-- Type: application/pgp-signature, Size: 197 bytes --] [-- Attachment #2: Type: text/plain, Size: 487 bytes --] ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
