I want the text flow to avoid the layer "avoidasfloat" as it avoids the figures.
\definelayer[avoidasfloat][x=0mm, y=0mm, hoffset=8mm, voffset=101mm,location={right,bottom}, state=start] \setlayer[avoidasfloat]{\startMPcode draw (0mm,0mm)--(55mm,0mm) ; draw (0mm,0mm)--(0mm,-86mm) ; draw (0mm,-86mm)--(55mm,-86mm) ; draw (55mm,-86mm)--(55mm,0mm) ; \stopMPcode } \setupbackgrounds[page][background={avoidasfloat}] \starttext \dorecurse{40}{\input knuth\placefigure[right]{}{}\par} \stoptext
Layer has text inside in the sample above. I’d like to have it as a float.
Many thanks for your help,
You can use positioned layers (mentioned in the metafun manual but currently broken in MkIV) but you have to place the layer with a float to reserve the necessary space. % engine=pdftex \definelayer[avoidasfloat][position=yes] \setupbackgrounds[page][background=avoidasfloat] \starttext \placefigure[right,none]{}{\setlayer[avoidasfloat]{\startMPcode draw unitsquare scaled 4cm ; \stopMPcode}} \input knuth \stoptext Wolfgang
