Dear Hans,

thanks a lot for your solution!

I have added "color=black” to \definebar to prevent the bar’s color from changing at a line break, which happens otherwise:

\definebar[ClozedBar][underbar][continue=yes]
%\definebar[ClozedBar][underbar][continue=yes, color=black]
\unexpanded\def\Clozed#1{\ClozedBar{\zwj\quad#1\quad\zwj}}
\starttext
\Clozed{\color[red]{CLOZE 1}} text text text text text text text text text text text
\Clozed{\color[red]{CLOZE 2 CLOZE 2}}
\stoptext

Now the extra space is hardcoded by \quad. I guess it’s not so easy then to make the underbar’s width a factor times the input text width? Or, alternatively, an explicitly given width?

Cheers,
Florian
