Underlined header

Underlined header

[Tobias Burnus]

Hi,

I was asked why this doesn't work (ConTeXt becomes increasently more used
at our Physical Department!!!!):

\setupheader[text][style=\sc, after=\hairline]

\def\SFT{\startframedtext[frame=off,bottomframe=on]}
\setupheader[text]
[style=\sc,before=\SFT,
after=\stopframedtext]

In both cases the line is too far left.

Ok, I found the solution myself:
\setupbackgrounds[header][frame=off,bottomframe=on]

I use \nolist{}

I thought [chapter] texts which are very long and span more than the size
left to the pagenumber.

i have to look into it and maybe set the \hsize more explicitly, you can
say: width=\makeupwidth

>Another thing: How do I shorten very long headers?

maxwidth=.75\textwidth

and alike [for left and right]; this also works in list entries.

\setupheader[text]
            [style=\sc,
	    before={\inframed[frame=off,bottomframe=on]\bgroup},
	     after=\egroup]

produces a nice line (just below the writting, not at the bottom of the
header box as \setupbackgrounds does), but it spans not only the textwidth
but the complete pagewidth, why?

Another thing: How do I shorten very long headers?

This has to do with a hairline being typeset at \hsize etc, indeed as you
say in the other mail, using backgrounds is a far better way, especially
since it does not interfere in any sense with whatever. Concerning
'framedtext', that one is meant for runnign texts, since it does some space
optimization. before=\framed[...]\bgroup after=\egroup would do a better
job [or \inframed]
