Hello,


Here is my problem:


\setuplayout[%
    width=0.75\paperwidth,
    height=\dimexpr\paperheight-1.2\paperwidth+1.2\textwidth+26mm]

\definelayout[luxury][%
    width=0.6667\paperwidth,
    height=\dimexpr\paperheight-1.2\paperwidth+1.2\textwidth+26mm]


\starttext

- textwidth: \the\textwidth \crlf
- textheight: \the\textheight
\page

\setuplayout[luxury]

- textwidth: \the\textwidth \crlf
- textheight: \the\textheight % <-- The height (\texteight parameter) which
depends on the width (\textwidth parameter) in my ‘luxury’ layout has NOT
changed though the local width (\textwidth parameter) has changed.
Therefore height used the global parameter \textwidth (defined in
setuplayout) instead of the local parameter \textwidth (defined in
definelayout[luxury]). Question: how to use the local one?

\stoptext


Best regards.

\measured gives me this error (*Undefined control sequence*):

*\17>>h1 ^^@-1.2\measured*
*                       {w1}+26mm*
*\measure ...sname \csname \??measure #1\endcsname*

I am using ConTeXt  ver: 2013.04.20. So I tried to use \dimexpr:

\definemeasure[h1][\the\dimexpr 1.2\measure{w1}+26mm\relax]
\definemeasure[h2][\the\dimexpr 1.2\measure{w2}+26mm\relax]

but it gives me this error (there is a problem with the decimal point in
1.2 because there is no error when I put an integer instead):

*\17>>w1 .-0.*
*            7500\paperwidth*
*\measure ...sname \csname \??measure #1\endcsname*
*                                                  \else \zeropoint \fi*
*\17>>h1 r-\the \dimexpr 1.2\measure {w1}*
*                                         + 26mm \relax*
*\measure ...sname \csname \??measure #1\endcsname*
*                                                  \else \zeropoint \fi*
