Wolfgang,

Thank you. That is very close.

That left-aligns it; I need to right align it. Already tried align=right and align=flushright, none of which worked. I am just guessing here as there does not seem to be any documentation available on \startframed. How can I right-align this?

Thank you.
Malte.

Replace the line above with this block:

   \startframed[frame=off,align=normal,offset=none,foregroundstyle=\tfc,foregroundcolor=darkgray]
       \getvariable{titlepage}{title}
   \stopframed

When I use “align=flushright” the text is right aligned but you have change to change also the width with “width=broad”.

\startframed … \stopframed is only a different way to write \framed{…}.

Replace the line above with this block:

    \startframed[frame=off,align=normal,offset=none,foregroundstyle=\tfc,foregroundcolor=darkgray]
        \getvariable{titlepage}{title}
    \stopframed

Hi Malte,

If you say

\setvariables
	[titlepage]
	[set=\texsetup{titlepage},
	project={Pearson},
	title={\startframedtext[width=\textwidth,frame=off] This document title is very long, \crlf so I'd like to  break it into two lines \stopframedtext},
	author={Tony Mueller},
	version={Version 1.0.0}]

the title is broken where you put \crlf.
Is that what you want?

Best regards: OK

Help with Long Titles

[Malte Stien]

Hello,

I am using a the startsetups mechanism that defines a title page in my environment file. That way anyone creating a document in my organisation can create a new document and get a consistent look of the title page. There is one problem with this: On occasions I get very long document titles and then the title extends over the left-hand edge of the page. I would like to incorporate a new line into the document title; I'd even be happy to do that manually, ie. it does not have to be automatic.

There are two problems here:
1. I had not had any success with putting a newline into the title; it will need to be not where the titlepage is defined but where it is used (see below). I have tried \par and \\ and none of them work.
2. Assuming I found a way to do this, I would need to also find a way of reducing the \blank[170mm] by the amount that the second line of the title takes up to render the information down the bottom in roughly the same place. If push comes to shove, I could create a second titlepage setup for two-line titles, but I much rather not. Is there a solution to that? Is there maybe a way to position the information down the bottom absolute?

Here is  minimal example (or something very close to that):

% The title page
\startsetups titlepage
	\startstandardmakeup[style=sans]
	\blank[50mm]
	\rightaligned{\bfd\getvariable{titlepage}{project}}
	\textrule
	\rightaligned{\tfc\color[darkgray]{\getvariable{titlepage}{title}}}
	\blank[170mm]
	\starttabulate[|plf{\tfa}|prf{\tfa}|]
	\NC\tfa\copyright\thinspace Pearson Pty Ltd  \NC                    \getvariable{titlepage}{author} \NC\NR
	\TB[small]
	\NC \color[darkgray]{Commercial in Confidence} \NC \color[darkgray]{\getvariable{titlepage}{version}} \NC\NR
	\stoptabulate
	\tfx Uncontrolled copy if printed.
	\stopstandardmakeup
\stopsetups

% ...and this is how it is being used
\starttext
\setvariables
	[titlepage]
	[set=\texsetup{titlepage},
	project={Pearson},
	title={This document title is very long, so I'd like to \par break it into two lines},
	author={Tony Mueller},
	version={Version 1.0.0}]
\stoptext

Thank you very much for all the help I have received so far.

Regards,
Malte.
