Hello,
there is some collision between columnset and layer. See following example:
-----------------------------------------------------
\newdimen\tgrX \newdimen\tgrY
\tgrX=3cm \tgrY=2cm
\starttext
\startcolumnset
\definelayer[tgr-cow][position=no,corner=top]
\setlayer[tgr-cow][x=.0\tgrX,y=.0\tgrY,location=middle]{O}%
\framed
[width=fit,height=fit,offset=none,
background={foreground,tgr-cow},frame=off]
{\externalfigure[cow][width=\tgrX,height=\tgrY]}%
\stopcolumnset
\stoptext
-------------------------------------------------------
I got the error:
! Bad character code (361).
<recently read> \@@layerboxtgr-cow
I am a bit puzzled by strange error message. If the columnset is
commented, the code is proceeded as expected.

define the layer outside the columnset; it's probably a grouping problem

OK, it works and is sufficient for me since I know a number of needed
layers.
But generally it is not a clean solution. Can be solved counting number
of layers in one pass and defining in the second, but... Hans, do you
think is the grouping problem doable? If yes I will put the note to the
collector.
Thanks

it's kind of tricky to make definitions global (since it hooks into
framed and such)
so, the best is to do more testing and/or do assignment in layer
definitions global
you can make it a low priority entru in the collection
