Besides the answer from Willi, I'd like to add that in the specific case of layout tuning you might be careful with the naming. For example when you want to use the "height" parameter that is given with the \setuplayout macro, you have to refer to \makeupheight. To see what I mean, use the \showsetups command. It gives you the \setuplayout parameter and the connected name. Patrick
