1. When you have multiple layers you have to to list them all in the \setupbackgrounds commands.
\setupbackgrounds[page][background={document_logo,document_data}]
2. You can insert a certain numbers of empty lines in your document with \blank[<n>*line].
3. \startalignment makes no sense in a layer.
4. You can align single lines of text with \leftaligned, \midaligned or \rightaligned.
\startcomponent title_page
\product bachelors_thesis_text
\project bachelors_thesis
