> Many thanks! Now if only you could tell me how to set the width and height of the box and give it a frame ... I tried

width:

\startsetups streamlayer:test:settings
  \overloadtextwidth{12cm}
\stopsetups

frame:

\definetextbackground[testframe]

\startstreamlayer[test]
\starttextbackground[testframe]
...
\stoptextbackground
\stopstreamlayer
