Hi!

Is there a reason that presets don't work with collectors?
Collectors are based on layers and that's what presets are made for,
right? Bug or feature?

  \definecollector
    [mycollector]
    [width=\textwidth]

  \setcollector
    [mycollector]
    {\framed[width=5cm,height=2cm]{Foo}}

  \setcollector
    [mycollector]
    [preset=rightbottom]        %% not recognized
    %% [corner={right, bottom}, %% works
    %%  location={left, top}]
    {\framed{Bar}}

  \flushcollector [mycollector]
  \starttext\null\stoptext


Marco

The collector macros aren’t based on layers.

I don't know why I thought they were.

What is the correct way to place a collector mid aligend underneath another? I
manage to place them underneath left aligned using

	location={right, bottom}, corner=bottom

and mid aligned as in the example below. However, I prefer not to adjust
the distance manually.

	\setupbodyfont [12pt]

	\definecollector
		[mycollector]

	\setcollector
		[mycollector]
		{\framed[align=normal]{\input khatt-en\par}}

	%% this is the desired output, but without the manual adjustment
	\setcollector
		[mycollector]
		[location=bottom,
		 corner=middle,
		 %% voffset=.5\layerheight,  %% no effect
		 voffset=.8cm]
		{\framed[width=5cm,align=normal]{\input ward\par}}

	\flushcollector [mycollector]

	\starttext\null\stoptext

Intuitively I would expect the following to work, but I guess the `middle`
syntax is not supported or I am using it in the wrong way.

	\setcollector
		[mycollector]
		[corner={middle, bottom},
		 location={middle, bottom}]
		{\framed[width=5cm,align=normal]{\input ward\par}}
