Hello,

thanks Peter and Wolfgang for their answers.

Both following codes work:

---- P.
\setuplayout[page]

\define\bef{\page\vbox to\textheight\bgroup\vfill\vfill}
\define\aft{\vfill\vfill\vfill\egroup}

\setuphead[section]
   [before=\bef,after=\aft,
    %commandbefore=\cbef,commandafter=\caft,
    alternative=middle,
   ]

\starttext
   \section{AAA}
\stoptext
----

---- W.
\setuplayout[page]

\definemakeup[section]%[text]
\setupmakeup[section][top=\vfill\vfill,bottom=\vfill\vfill\vfill]

\setuphead[section]
  [before=\startsectionmakeup,
   after=\stopsectionmakeup,
   alternative=middle,
  ]

%\setuplabeltext[section=Section ]

\starttext
   \section{AAA}
\stoptext
----

@Peter: There were some typos, of course, due to testing; fixed here.

@Wolfgang: What does option "[text]" in your original "\definemakeup[section][text]" mean? Not much wiser from wiki.

To both:

How to make the label written into one line instead of its number be above the section name, i.e.

"
1 AAA
"

instead of

"
  1
AAA
"

Best regards,

Lukas
