Subject: Calculating with \measure
Date: Sun, 19 Mar 2017 18:06:32 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170319180632.43f6e75e@homerow> (raw)

Hi!

Is it possible to calculate with \measure or do I have to resort to
dimens? Example:

\definemeasure [mymeasure] [4cm]
\newdimen\mydim \mydim4cm

\starttext
  \framed[width=4cm]{Foobar}
  \framed[width=\measure{mymeasure}]{Foobar}
  \framed[width=2\mydim]{Foobar}
  \framed[width=2\measure{mymeasure}]{Foobar}
\stoptext

Marco
