Author wants an image on facing page to each of 10 chapters in the bodypart of the document. Assume that everything else is working properly for this document (double-sided etc.), but other than before chapter 1, I can't seem to get my facing page image to appear where it should!
From what I understood from your explanation, I have this:
%%% SOF % for 'mill' \setupexternalfigures[location={default}] \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided] \definelayer[mill][x=0mm,y=0mm,width=\paperwidth,height=\paperheight,repeat=yes] \setlayer[mill]{\externalfigure[mill][width=\paperwidth]} \startsetups chapter:before \doifoddpageelse{} {\pushbackground[page] \setupbackgrounds[page][background=mill] \page[empty] \popbackground} \stopsetups \startsetups chapter:after \doifoddpageelse{} {\page[empty]} \stopsetups \setuphead [chapter] [page=yes, before=\directsetup{chapter:before}, aftersection=\directsetup{chapter:after}] \starttext \dorecurse{10}{ \startchapter[title={Chapter \convertnumber{word}{\recurselevel}}] \input knuth \blank \input tufte \blank \input ward \blank \ifnum\recurselevel=5 \page \input zapf \input zapf \fi \stopchapter } \stoptext %%% EOF [I am just using the mill picture on every facing page of chapter] If the chapter ends on an even page then we can insert an empty page with \page[empty] with [aftersection=...] in \setuphead. The [before=...] is push, set background to mill on a new (empty) left page and then pop back (much like the example from wiki). Sreeram
