Page number in the middle of the margin

Page number in the middle of the margin

[Flavien Lambert]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 532 bytes --]

Dear all, as said by the title of the e-mail, I try to put the page number
in the middle (both vertically and horizontally) of the margin. I tried a
custom command like
\def\mypagenumber#1{%
\vfill #1 \vfill
}
\setuppagenumbering{location=margin,command=\mypagenumber}

but, unfortunately, I got an error message on the \vfill. Is there a direct
way to place my page number ?
Regards,

Hi,

This I would approach with the layer-mechanism.

Sorry, I wasn't clear. \midalign{} put the page number in the (horizontal)
middle of the margin in the bottom. What I would like to do is to put the
page number in the vertical middle of the page.
