Dear list,

the only way I found to center content horizontally and vertically on a
page is a makeup, such as:

    \startstandardmakeup[align=middle]
    content to be centered
    \stopstandardmakeup

I need to be able to change the background on some given pages. Which is
the way to do this?

I have tried with (what I understand from) setups:

    \startsetups[setups:redcolor]
        \setupbackgrounds[page][background=color,backgroundcolor=red]
    \stopsetups

    \startstandardmakeup[setups=setups:redcolor]
    content
    \stopstandardmakeup

But it didn't work.

Could you help me with this?

Many thanks for your help,


Pablo

why not just

\startstandardmakeup[align=middle]
     content to be centered
\stopstandardmakeup

\setupbackgrounds[page][background=color,backgroundcolor=red]

\startstandardmakeup[align=middle]
     content
\stopstandardmakeup

Well, so stupid it sounds, I had no idea this was possible (I thought it
was forbidden to setup anything after \starttext).

Many thank for your help,
