Fascinating. Thanks a lot. That is more than I hoped for, and was easy to adapt to what I wanted. One small issue: There is a tiny gap between the black layer box and the right margin (in white) that doesn't even disappear when I increase hoffset. Any chance to make that disappear, too?

Dear All,
I am trying to place a framed text in the top right corner of each page of a screen document and it looks like (cont-eni) some invocation of \setupheadertexts might do the job. Unfortunately, I have only been able to place my text in the margin of the body of the page, using \margintext. Ideally, I would like to have the framed text box flush with the top and right edge of a page, but any approximate solution or a pointer to some document to read (that could educate me) will be much appreciated.
Smells like Layers to me. Try this, for starters:
\definelayer[mybg][x=180mm, y=0mm,width=3cm, height=3cm,repeat=yes] \setlayer[mybg][hoffset=0cm, voffset=0cm]{\framed[frame=on, width=3cm, height=2cm,background=color,backgroundcolor=black,foregroundcolor=white]{LAYER}} \setupbackgrounds[page][background=mybg] \starttext Test \page Test1 \page Test2 \stoptext

Hope that helps :)
