Thanks Wolfgang!

The reason for the use of the layer is the following: If I use frames of 
the natural table, then I have this:

\def\arde[#1][#2]{%
\bTABLE
\setupTABLE[frame=off]
\setupTABLE[c][1][rightframe=on]
\bTR
\bTD #1 \eTD
\bTD #2 \eTD
\eTR
\eTABLE}
\setuptolerance[tolerant,stretch]
\starttext
\arde[\input knuth][\input knuth]
\arde[\input knuth][\input knuth]
\stoptext

There you can see the problem, you have to zoom into the pdf: Between 
the two tables, there is a tiny tiny (!) space betweeen the vertical 
lines. Its not a big issue, but it is there.

That does not work in my case, where in the right column a r2l-text 
(arabic) is set. See this example:

\startsetups[arde]
   \setupTABLE[c][1][rightframe=on]
\stopsetups
\def\startarde
   {\bTABLE[frame=off,width=.5\textwidth,setups=arde,split=yes]}
\def\stoparde
   {\eTABLE}
\define[2]\arde
   {\bTR
      \bTD#1\eTD
      \bTD#2\eTD
    \eTR}
\setuptolerance[tolerant,stretch]
\starttext
\arde{\input knuth }{\setupalign[r2l] Eigentlich steht hier etwas 
Arabisches.}
\stoptext

The two texts are just written one after another, no table, no columns.

Hi,

I use a vertical line (realized as a layer) for a bilingual project. My 
question is:
1. How can I set this line on all pages?
2. How can I control, on which pages it is set, and on which not? I 
tried it with state=start/stop/repeat, but that did not work.

Here my try:

\definelayer[mybg]
     [x=0mm, y=0mm,
      width=\paperwidth, height=\paperheight]
\setlayer[mybg]
     [hoffset=10cm, voffset=4cm]
     {\blackrule[width=1pt, height=\vsize, depth=0.5ex]}
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=mybg]
\setuptolerance[tolerant,stretch]

\starttext
\input knuth
\page
\input knuth
\stoptext

Thanks for help.
Huseyin
