fitting page around content

fitting page around content

[Michael Goerz]

Hi Everyone!

is there a way to tell ConTeXt to fit the page tightly around the
content? In LaTeX, I can do this with
   \usepackage[active,tightpage]{preview}

The purpose is to create a standalone tikz figure of potentially
unknown size.

Thanks,
Michael

I have no idea what the LaTeX code does, but from your description, this sounds like what you're looking for: http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/20100307.022718.c28f4594.en.html
