Hi,
backgroundscreen is no longer working here, apparently since the beta 2015-04-12.
\starttext
% \setupbackgrounds [page] [background=color,backgroundcolor=lightgray]
\setupbackgrounds [page] [background=screen,backgroundscreen=.8]
\input knuth
\stoptext
If I use the pack-rul.mkiv from 2015-04-08 it works again.
Is it deprecated now, or is this just a bug?
Thanks.

More precisely: If I uncomment the 2 definitions `\pack_framed_background_box_gray` and `\pack_framed_background_box_gray_indeed` it works again.

it's definitely and on purpose gone .. i kept it for a few years but not
it's really gone in mkiv
so just use backgroundcolor=gray (or some shade)
(long long ago - dvi times - the distinction was there because we could
fake gray using small periods so it was a different background plugin)
(just like nowadays \encoding[utf] is not needed and colors are enabled
by default)

they are kept as reference .. in fact we also need to comment this line
\letvalue{\??overlaybuiltin\v!screen }\pack_framed_background_box_gray
just curious: who is still using backgroundscreen?
Hans
(btw, there were gone in the betas for a while so it's not that sudden.)

Ah, OK. Thanks. I wasn’t aware.

Well, it still worked until 8 April ;-)
I had the backgroundscreen in an environment file which is about 8 years old …
