centering & fit question

Hello,

In the underneath example, the only way I found to have everything
horizontally and vertically centered in the text and margin header,
as well as fit into the margin header, is as follows:

\setuplayout[margin=3cm]

\showframe

\def\myText{%
% \hfill some text \hfill}
%\starthiding
   \framed[%
    width=\textwidth,
    height=\headerheight,
    align=middle,
    top=\vss,
    bottom=\vss,
    frame=off]
    {some text}}
%\stophiding

\def\myMarginText{%
% \hfill this is some margin text \hfill}
%\starthiding
   \framed[%
    width=\marginwidth,
    height=\headerheight,
    align=middle,
    top=\vss,
    bottom=\vss,
    frame=off]
    {this is some longer margin text}}
%\stophiding

\setuppagenumbering[location=footer]

%\setupheader[%
% before=\vss,
% after=\vss]

\setupheadertexts[text]
 [\myText]
 [\myText]

\setupheadertexts[margin]
 [\myMarginText]
 [\myMarginText]

\starttext
test
\stoptext

What's the way to get the same result without using \framed
and without making the margin wider ?

Uncommenting what's commented in the code above centers
everything ok, but the margin text doesn't fit.

Thanks.

You text is too long and you need a vertical box to break
the along lines.

\setuplayout[margin=3cm]

%\showframe

\def\myText
   {\hfill some text \hfill}

\def\myMarginText
   {\hbox{$\vcenter{\vbox{\raggedcenter this is some margin text}}$}}

\def\myMarginText
   {\framed
      [location=middle,
       align=middle,
       width=\hsize,
       frame=off]
      {this is some margin text}}

\setuppagenumbering[location=footer]

\setupheader
   [before=\vss,
    after=\vss]

\setupheadertexts
   [text]
   [\myText]
   [\myText]

\setupheadertexts
   [margin]
   [\myMarginText]
   [\myMarginText]

\starttext
test
\stoptext

Thanks Wolfgang. I don't understanf the use of location=middle though...

\starttext

\framed[%
 location=middle,
 align=middle,
 height=5cm,
 width=\hsize,
 frame=on]
 {some text}

\framed[%
 align=middle,
 height=5cm,
 width=\hsize,
 frame=on]
 {some text}

\stoptext

You need text before/after the box to see the effect of location.

\def\showbox#1%
   {\ruledvbox{#1: text \framed[location=#1,width=1cm,align=right] 
{text text text} text}}

\starttext
\showbox{normal}
\showbox{middle}
\showbox{top}
\showbox{bottom}
\stoptext
