Hi everyone,
slowly getting to grips with layer etc. However, some vertical space at the top of my framed layer appears whenever the first element is a heading:
---
\definelayer
[text]
[width=\paperwidth,
height=\paperheight]
\setupbackgrounds
[page]
[background=text]
\startbuffer[test]
\subject{Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur, sadipisci\dots}
\input zapf
\stopbuffer
\setuphead
[subject]
[before=,
after=,
align=right]
\starttext
\setlayerframed
[text]
[x=1cm,
y=3cm]
[width=7cm,
align=normal,
offset=none]
{\getbuffer[test]}
\page[empty]
\stoptext
---
How do I remove this space?
Best,
Oliver

Well, actually I don't want to get a fancy heading using layers but rather I'd like to use layers like DTP text frames and fill them with (unnumbered) headings, paragraphs, formulas etc. Just like small pages I can position on the parent page arbitrarily.
The issue arises whenever a heading (say \subject) happens to be the first piece of material I put into a layer. Any ideas to get rid of the leading vertical space?
Actually, instead of a true heading I'd probably be fine with another command that gives me consistent style, line space, alignment, leading and trailing vertical space etc. After all, I'm going to use this in a poster, so I won't need an entry in the TOC, nor any markers, anchors to the "heading" etc.
Best,
Oliver

Why not just
\definedfont[TitleFont][Serif sa 3]
and
{\TitleFont
\startbuffer[test]
{\TitleFont Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur, sadipisci\unknown\par}
\input zapf
\stopbuffer

You're right, that's a good way to go! I now have:
---
\definefont
[TopicFont]
[name:MyriadPro-Semibold*default at 48pt]
---
with the little typo corrected. Many thanks!
Oliver
