I guess I must use that, but it's not flexible enough (e.g. you can't *add* some background).
Hello Henning, since some weeks, you *can* add some backgrounds: \setupcolors[state=start] \defineoverlay[layer1][{\color[red]{this is layer 1}}] \defineoverlay[layer2][{\rotate[rotation=30]{\color[blue]{this is layer 2}}}] \defineoverlay[layer3][{\rotate[rotation=60]{\color[green]{this is layer 3}}}] \setupbackgrounds[page][state=start,background=layer1] \doifmode{layer2}{% \expandparameters \setupbackgrounds[page][background={\currentvalue,layer2}]} \doifmode{layer3}{% \expandparameters \setupbackgrounds[page][background={\currentvalue,layer3}]} \starttext \input tufte \stoptext Then, you can use any combination of mode=layer2 and/or mode=layer3...
