Hello, suppose the following code: ---- \setuplayout[header=5mm,headerdistance=5mm,] \setupbackgrounds[header][text][bottomframe=on] \setupheadertexts[left][right] \starttext Page 1 \page[empty,blank] Page 2 \stoptext ---- Page 2 in this sample is empty - no text and no header/footer - but it KEEPS FRAME around HEADER. How to: - define header to be framed normally and - to be "frame-free" when \page[empty] (and/or maybe \page[blank]) is called? Best regards, Lukas -- Ing.
