Layout definitions ..

[Dirar Bougatef]

Hi,

I have 2 questions:

1. Is there anyway to answer the messages on this archive without
replying to the corresponding received mail? I would like to update a
previous post but can't manage to do it.

2. I would like to define a new layout that does not contain left and 
right margins.
This layout is going to divide my page to 4 parts as a matrix of 2x2.
How can i do that ?
Is there anyway to identify each part of them in the same way as we 
identify the left and right margins within the default layout ?
Is this in relation with margin and opposite blocks ?

Many thanks.

Dirar.

You can't update previous posts on the mailing list. You have to
answer your own message and post a followup. Just reply to your
message and if needed insert ntg-context@ntg.nl in the "To:" header.

depends on what you want to do; an option is to make A6 pages and to 
impose the pages; another option is to use layers:

\setuplayout
  [page]

\definelayer[lt] \setuplayer[lt][width=.5\textwidth,height=.5\textheight]
\definelayer[lb] \setuplayer[lb][width=.5\textwidth,height=.5\textheight]
\definelayer[rt] \setuplayer[rt][width=.5\textwidth,height=.5\textheight]
\definelayer[rb] \setuplayer[rb][width=.5\textwidth,height=.5\textheight]

\definelayer[pp] \setuplayer[pp][width=\textwidth,height=\textheight]

\startsetups buildpage

    \setlayer[pp][preset=lefttop]    {\tightlayer[lt]}
    \setlayer[pp][preset=righttop]   {\tightlayer[rt]}
    \setlayer[pp][preset=leftbottom] {\tightlayer[lb]}
    \setlayer[pp][preset=rightbottom]{\tightlayer[rb]}

    \startstandardmakeup \tightlayer[pp] \stopstandardmakeup

\stopsetups

\starttext

    \setlayerframed[lt][preset=middle,rotation=45]{welcome}
    \setlayerframed[rt][preset=middle,rotation=315]{to}
    \setlayerframed[rb][preset=middle,rotation=225]{context's}
    \setlayerframed[lb][preset=middle,rotation=135]{layers}

    \setups[buildpage]

\stoptext


(something for the wiki archive)
