Wolfgang, thanks so much for your help so far. I was able to take the code and make it work correctly to stretch the chapter title. What I want is two lines for a chapter head. For example, Line 1: "Chapter One" Line 2: "Title for Chap 1" I want line 1 to be stretched. Everything I have tried does not work. I can get the "Chapter" word to stretch, but not the whole line (and it should probably be treated as a whole line when stretching). I was never able to get the chapter number (now a word) to stretch. So how do I grab the output for line 1 and then stretch it? Here's a sample of what I have without any stretching: \def\Myheader#1#2{% \framedtext[width=0.60\textwidth, frame=off, align=middle]{% \vbox{\headtext{chapter}~#1 \blank #2}}} \def\englishnumbers#1{ \ifcase#1 \or ONE\or TWO\or THREE\or FOUR\or FIVE\fi} \defineconversion[englishnumbers][\englishnumbers] \setupsection[chapter][conversion=englishnumbers] \setuphead [chapter][ command=\Myheader, textcommand=\bfd, ] \setupheadtext[chapter=CHAPTER] % used by \headtext \starttext \chapter{Title for Chap 1} \processfile{tufte} \stoptext P.S. If there's a better way to do the number->word conversion, let me know. On Wednesday 12 November 2008 10:17:35 am Wolfgang Schuster wrote:

Okay, it works until I place an an argument in the stretched command.
def\MyChapterCommand#1#2{ \framed[align=center,frame=off,width=\textwidth]{ \vbox{ fails--> \stretched{#2} works--> \stretched{This is a Test} } } \setuphead[chapter][ command=\MyChapterCommand }
I get the following error when I run texexec:
! Missing \endcsname inserted. <to be read again> \let \nextprocessedtoken ...oup \ifincolor \ifcsname #1 #3\endcsname \let \dostopa...

How can I use the #1 & #2 arguments in the stretched command?
You could use it only with \deeptextcommand, here is a old mail with a example from Hans (you could ignore the other code).
