Hi,
Is there a simple way to split a large \startframedtext environment over
multiple pages. It doesn't work out of the box and I didn't find any
option make it work in the wiki nor in the documentation I read.
Thanks.

Use backgrounds or textbackgrounds.

Thank you but I still can't achieve what I want to do whith this
command.
I try to make something similar to the frames in the
"mkiv-publications.pdf" manual (page 6 or 22 for a bibliography for
examples).
I suppose Hans Hagen made use of metafun to do it but I encounter some
problems with 'textbackgrounds'.
In this minimal example, the frame doesn't appear (or if i set
[frame=on,leftframe=off] all the frame is rendered) and the left and
right offsets are not took into account.
% test-bcknd.tex
\usebtxdataset[biblio.bib]
\setupbtxrendering
[before={\startbiblio},
after={\stopbiblio}]
% Arri�re-plan biblio
\definetextbackground[biblio]
[location=paragraph,
background=color,
backgroundcolor=green,
%backgroundoffset=2em,
leftoffset=1em,
rightoffset=1em,
topoffset=1.5em,
bottomoffset=1em,
frame=off,
leftframe=on,
rulethickness=.1em,
framecolor=red]
\startdocument
\startchapter[title=A chapter]
\input knuth \cite[knuth]\blank
\input ward \cite[ward]\blank
\placelistofpublications[criterium=chapter]
\stopchapter
\stopdocument
% end
% biblio.bib
@book{knuth,
title = "Title",
author = "Knuth",
publisher = "Publisher",
year = "2019",
}
@book{ward,
title = "Title",
author = "Ward",
publisher = "Publisher",
year = "2019",
}
% end
Any suggestions?
Thank you.

textbackground uses metapost for ALL backgrounds and the default metapost
code to draw the background (draw_multi_pars, defined in mp-abck.mkiv)
doesn't handle individual frames. So, you have to write your own metapost
code to draw the side bar.
Another option for simple backgrounds is to use `\definebackground`
instead of `definetextbackground`. The background mechanism doesn't have
too many options, but does honor leftframe and rightframe by default.

You can look under
doc/context/sources/general/manuals/publications/publications-style.tex
to see how it is done.

All these source files where here, next to me, all this time and I didn't

It will take some time to understand everything in "mp-abck.mpiv" but it
will sure be very interesting.
Thank you.

It errors with that code you gave me. I can't seem to find the specific
error message as ConTeXt dumps tonnes and tonnes of pages of console
output that it's probably buried somewhere in.

Are you using MkII or MkIV? Is metapost working?

Thanks Hans. I saw it already, but I couldn't get the frame to appear
around the text.
Can you show me the textbackground equivalent that has page breaks to
the following that I have been using?
\definestartstop
[SomeFramedText]
[before={
\crlf
\setupbackground[frame=on,
before=\blank,
after=\blank,
corner=round,
topoffset=0.5cm,
leftoffset=0.5cm,

\startbackground

\stopbackground
\crlf

Hey Aditya. I mean that I would like framed text to be split over
multiple pages whenever possible.

you can search for 'textbackground' (which is another mechanism)

Can you explain what you mean by inline pagebreak?

Hey list,
I'd like my framed text to be split over multiple pages rather than
leaving a big empty page before it starts so that it can fill its own
whole page when large enough.
This is what I am using and works fine, with the exception of no inline
page breaks:
\definestartstop
[SubDocument]
[before={
\crlf
\setupbackground[frame=on,
before=\blank,
after=\blank,
corner=round,
topoffset=0.5cm,
leftoffset=0.5cm,
rightoffset=0.5cm,
bottomoffset=0.5cm]
\startbackground
},
after={
\stopbackground
\crlf
},
commands={\setupalign[yes]},
style=italic]
Then used as such:
\startSubDocument
...
\stopSubDocument
