paper dimensions for TEXpage

paper dimensions for TEXpage

[Pablo Rodriguez via ntg-context]

Dear list,

I have the following sample:

  \definelayer[hi][x=.5\paperwidth, y=.5\paperheight]
  \setupbackgrounds[page][background=hi]
  \starttext
  \setlayer[hi]{hi}
  \startTEXpage[offset=10em]
  \null
  \stopTEXpage
  \stoptext

I don’t get the layer in the TEXpage.

How could I get it with the TEXpage dimensions?

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo

only by first boxing (using framed or so) and then taking those dimensions

Many thanks for your reply, Hans.

I’m afraid I don’t know how to make the commands work:

  \setupexternalfigures[location=default]
  \definelayer[hi]
   [x=.5\dimexpr\framedwidth\relax, y=.5\dimexpr\framedheight\relax]
  \setupbackgrounds[page][background={foreground, hi}]
  \starttext
  \startTEXpage
  \framed[frame=off, offset=none]
  {\setlayer[hi]{\color[red]{hi}}
  \externalfigure[cow-brown]\framedheight}
  \stopTEXpage
  \stoptext

In this case, \getfiguredimensions would work, but I don’t know how to
deal with a pure text box.

BTW, is there a way to have TEXpages numbered? "pagestate=start" seems
not to work here.

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo

\starttext

   \definelayer[hi]

   \startTEXpage[background=hi]
     \setbox\scratchbox\hbox\framed
       [frame=off,offset=none,align=middle]
       {\input{tufte}}%
     \setuplayer
       [hi]
       [width=\wd\scratchbox,height=\htdp\scratchbox]
     \setlayer
       [hi][preset=middle]
       {\color[green]{there}}
     \box\scratchbox
   \stopTEXpage

   \defineoverlay[hi]

   \startTEXpage[background=hi]
     \defineoverlay
       [hi]
       [{\framed
 
[frame=off,offset=overlay,width=\overlaywidth,height=\overlayheight]
           {\color[red]{there}}}]
     \framed
       [frame=off,offset=none,align=middle,background=hi]
       {\input{tufte}}%
   \stopTEXpage

\stoptext

Many thanks for your reply, Hans.

"pagestate=start" works fine with TEXpages, but I don’t know why I
didn’t noticed that when I checked it.
