Hi!

Is it possible to calculate with \measure or do I have to resort to
dimens? Example:

\definemeasure [mymeasure] [4cm]
\newdimen\mydim \mydim4cm

\starttext
\framed[width=4cm]{Foobar}
\framed[width=\measure{mymeasure}]{Foobar}
\framed[width=2\mydim]{Foobar}
\framed[width=2\measure{mymeasure}]{Foobar}
\stoptext

You can use \measured or just create more named lengths.

\definemeasure [onemeasure] [4cm]
\definemeasure [twomeasure] [\measure{onemeasure}*2]
%\definemeasure [twomeasure] [2\measured{onemeasure}]

\starttext
\framed[width=\measure{onemeasure}]{Foobar}
\framed[width=2\measured{onemeasure}]{Foobar}
\framed[width=\measure{twomeasure}]{Foobar}
\stoptext
