Hi all,
in my document \startchapter and \starttitle starts a new chapter on the right (odd) page. So sometimes, there is a blank even page just before a new chapter.
I would like to manipulate this blank even page.
There are several things I would like to do, eg. having no headers and footers, setting the background color to a named color, placing an image or some graphics on the page.
Is there a way to define such a page, name it and call it in \startchapter so that it is placed on the left side. See https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/457428/323 Thanks a lot, but I wasn't looking for a way to just delete page numbers but to style the empty page in arbitrary ways.
Maybe it is better to do this manually.
I would let chapter open on even pages too and just insert a styled page by hand.
Here is a example which shows how you can change the background color of a empty page before the chapter title. \setuppagenumbering [alternative=doublesided] \startsetups [chapter:before] \doifoddpageelse {} {\pushbackground[page] \setupbackgrounds[page][background=color,backgroundcolor=black] \page[empty,right] \popbackground} \stopsetups \setuphead [chapter] [page=yes, before=\directsetup{chapter:before}] \starttext \startchapter[title={Knuth}] \dorecurse{10}{\samplefile{knuth}} \stopchapter \startchapter[title={Zapf}] \dorecurse{10}{\samplefile{zapf}} \stopchapter \startchapter[title={Ward}] \dorecurse{10}{\samplefile{ward}} \stopchapter \stoptext Wolfgang
