Only a fortnight ago, I was facing your exact problem and wasted several hours making a solution for a non-existant problem. So, in the hope that you can profit from my bitter experience, here's what I advice: 1) Go to the ConTeXt manual, 2) Look up '\setuphead' in the index, 3) Encapsulated within the handful of pages, following the index reference, is the solution to your exact problem laid out, step by step. (It's also a good introduction into the methodology used in the ConTeXt interface.) I'm only guessing that you want your section header looking like: X The Quick Brown Fox Jumped Over The Lazy Dog and using that assumption, I had a go at translating that into ConTeXt ----- \setuphead[section] [command=\doTitle] %% \def\doTitle#1#2{% %% \vbox to 0pt{ %% \hsize=3cm %% \hbox{\vtop{#1}\raise\lineheight\vtop{#2}} %% \vss}} \def\doTitle#1#2{% \hbox to 3cm \bgroup \hfill \setupframed [offset=.5em, frame=off] \tbox{\framed [width=1.5cm, align=right]{#1}}% \tbox{\framed [width=3cm, align=right]{#2}}% \egroup} \starttext \section A Day in the Life of the Quick Brown Fox \stoptext ------
