Hello Everybody, Hans reacted on the question of how to move a framed text relative to another framed text by: "search for 'layers' on the wiki; they provide precise positioning" Looking to the wiki site, I read at the first sentence: "Layers are ConTeXt's mechanism for absolute positioning of elements" But I don't want absolute postitioning, and I don't want a background which is repeated every page. Here an example I tried but it is not what I want. ( Don't look to the way how it is programmed and I mean the \startdefinition \stopdefinition. I want to do that on another nice way, but no idea how. Trying out this example gives a dummy file before the word "Definition", I want to put on that place certain figures. That is no problem.) ### Begin Example: % otherwise you get greyscale \setupcolors[state=start] \setupcolor[rgb] % Default % default %\setupbodyfont[10pt] \setupbodyfont[lucida,10pt] % works! % pagenumbering \setuppagenumbering[location={header,right}, style=bold] % set inter-paragraph spacing \setupwhitespace[medium] % printed on A4 paper \setuppapersize[A4][A4] % the layout ( 1 inch =2.54 centimeter) \setuplayout[backspace=25mm, width=170mm, topspace=10mm, top=0mm, header=20mm, footer=10mm, height=270mm, leftmargin=10mm, rightmargin=10mm, leftedge=0mm, rightedge=0mm] % uncomment the next line to see the layout %\showframe % make hyperlinks active \setupinteraction[state=start, color=orange] % use module newmat \usemodule[newmat] %\usemodule[amsl] % \usemodule[nath] not use this module, otherwise amsl doesn't work anymore. % define colors \definecolor[LightBlue][r=.5,g=.5,b=1.0] \definecolor[LightYellow][r=.8,g=.8,b=.6] \definecolor[LightRed][r=1.0,g=.4,b=.4] \definecolor[indexgray][s=0.925] \definecolor[indexred][r=0.9] \definecolor[indexyellow][y=0.9] \definecolor[secorange][r=1.0,g=0.8,b=0.6] \definecolor[subsecorange][r=0.9,g=0.8,b=0.6] \definecolor[examgreen][g=0.6] \definecolor[agvgreen][r=.8,g=1.0,b=.8] \definecolor[agvblue][r=.8,g=1.0,b=1.0] \definecolor[agvmauve][r=.6862,g=.2392,b=.8] \definecolor[agvbrown][r=.8,g=.4078,b=.2392] % define other things \setuplabeltext[en][chapter=Chapter\,] \setuplabeltext[en][section=Section\,] % Enumeration \defineenumeration[definition][text=Definition] \setupenumerations[definition][location=serried,width=broad,headstyle=italic, inbetween=\blank, before=\blank, after=\blank, way=bysection] % Tryout logotext % #1: Definition,Lemma,Section, #2: reference, #3: title \define[4]\logotext{% \doif{#1}{Definition}{% \startmyframe \framed[corner=00, background=color, backgroundcolor=agvgreen, foreground=color, foregroundcolor=black, offset=0.5ex, rulethickness=2pt, framecolor=agvbrown]{\,\externalfigure[Figures/#4.pdf][width=12pt]\, \startdefinition[#2] \stopdefinition}{#3} \stopmyframe} \doif{#1}{Lemma}{% \framed[corner=00, background=color, backgroundcolor=agvblue, foreground=color, foregroundcolor=black, rulethickness=2pt, framecolor=agvmauve]{#3}} \doif{#1}{Section}{% \framed[corner=00, background=color, backgroundcolor=agvgreen, foreground=color, foregroundcolor=black, foregroundstyle=normal, offset=0.75ex, rulethickness=1pt, framecolor=agvbrown]{\section[#2]{#3}}}} \defineframedtext [myframe] [width=\textwidth, offset=1.0ex, background=color, backgroundcolor=agvblue, foregroundstyle=normal, before={\blank[medium]}, after={\blank[medium]}, corner=00, rulethickness=1pt, framecolor=agvmauve] \starttext \section{Puh} \logotext{Definition}{DefAap}{ The numbers $\{x^{i}\}$ are called the \underbar{contravariant components}\index{contravariant components} of the vector $\text{\bf x}$ with respect tot the basis $\{\text{\bf e}_{i}\}$.}{} \logotext{Definition}{DefAap-1}{ The numbers $\{x^{i}\}$ are called the \underbar{contravariant components}\index{contravariant components} of the vector $\text{\bf x}$ with respect tot the basis $\{\text{\bf e}_{i}\}$.}{} % Show next sample \logotext{Definition}{DefAap-2}{ Let $\Omega$ be an open subset of $\Bbb{R}^{n}$.

Question is now: How to move the frames, with the text "Definition", Not only inside the frame, where they are positioned but also just like the "zapf-examples" of MetaFun, to the boundary of that other frame, or may be completely outside that frame? Just like the idea of a table. I'm interested in a solution, best regards, Rene' van Hassel
