Hi all,

Moreover, how do you get a rule in the header that extends from the left of the left margin, right across to the right of the right margin (including the gaps in between)?

Cheers,

Robin

And another question (in other topic): how we can do lines at header and footer like fancyheaders in latex?

For your headers try this:

\setupheader [text] [after=\hrule]

Hi Robin, I tried to make something working and came to the following three methods to draw a rule under the header at the whole pagewidth. If you use ConTeXts default layout with different margins you should use bigger values for the rulewidth than only pagewidth. \setuplayout[location=middle,cutspace=\backspace,width=middle] %\setuppapersize[A5][A4] %\showframe \startuseMPgraphic{headerrule} setbounds currentpicture to unitsquare xyscaled (\the\paperwidth,\the \headerheight); draw (0,0)--(\the\paperwidth,0); \stopuseMPgraphic \defineoverlay [headerrule] [\useMPgraphic{headerrule}] \defineoverlay [headerrule] [\vrule height\headerheight width0pt% \vrule width\paperwidth height 0.4pt\relax] \defineoverlay [headerrule] [{\framed[width=\paperwidth,height= \headerheight,frame=off,bottomframe=on]{}}] \setupbackgrounds [header] [text] [background=headerrule] \starttext \input knuth \stoptext Wolfgang
