Hi,

Maybe you need to say state=repeat in the
definition of your layer:

\definelayer[chapterbackground][state=repeat]

'[state=repeat]' causes all pages have the
'mill' background.

Best regards,

Lukas



I am not seeking a background but rather a
foreground. And I only need this for 7 chapter
heads. Here is how I put the page image into my
context file now:
-------------------------------------------------
\startstandardmakeup[doublesided=no]
\vskip -0.15in
\hskip -0.7in
\hbox{\externalfigure[chaphead2.pdf][width=\paperwidth,
height=\paperheight]} \stopstandardmakeup
\writetolist[chapter]{2}{Chapter 2: Understanding
the Food Industry}%
------------------------------------------------
This works but I want a less fiddly-more
reliable method.  

\setupexternalfigures[location=default]

\definelayer[chaptertext][width=\paperwidth,height=\paperheight]

\define[2]\ChapterCommand
  {\setlayerframed
     [chaptertext]
     [x=3cm,
      y=8cm]
[frame=off]
     {#1 – #2}}

\definemakeup[chapterpage][page]

\setupmakeup
  [chapterpage]
  [pagestate=start,
      before={\setupbackgrounds[page][background=chapterimage]},
      bottom={\placelayer[chaptertext]}]

\defineoverlay[chapterimage][\overlayfigure{\structureuservariable{image}}]

\setuphead
  [chapter]
  [   before={\startmakeup[chapterpage]},
    %command=\ChapterCommand,
   placehead=empty,
       after={\stopmakeup}]

\setuphead
  [title]
  [ before={\blank[big]},
     after={\blank[2*big]},
   command=]

\starttext

\completecontent

\startchapter[title={Understanding the Food Industry}][image=mill.png]

\input knuth

\stopchapter
