Is there a way to typeset a paragraph with background extending only in the margin?
I used the following setup, but I don't want the background to extend in the top/bottom (or at least minimize it), any ideas?
Use textbackgrounds.
Thanks for he tip. However, I managed to get the desired effect by setting a positive background offset, zero left/right offset, and negative top offset, this worked fine foe background, but the negative part has no effect in textbackground, any ideas? \setupcolors[state=start] \setupbackground [background=color,backgroundcolor=lightgray, leftoffset=0cm,rightoffset=0cm, backgroundoffset=.5cm,topoffset=-.3cm, % the offset works here frame=on] \setuptextbackground [background=color,backgroundcolor=lightgray, leftoffset=0cm,rightoffset=0cm, backgroundoffset=.5cm,topoffset=-.3cm, % but not here frame=on] \starttext \startbackground \input tufte \stopbackground \vfill \starttextbackground \input tufte \stoptextbackground \stoptext Regards, Khaled -- Khaled Hosny Arabic localiser and member of Arabeyes.org team Free font developer
