Very cool. First time I ever could figure out what \relax does. When I deleted it from this source, I got: ! I can't find file `zapf}'. l.25 {\input zapf} Please type another input file name: Good learning experience for me. I've seen and ignored this type of error message before, looking elsewhere in the code. A very good heads up for me. Now is there anyway I can visualize the importance of the line setbounds currentpicture to OverlayBox ; in this example? I deleted it and recompiled but didn't see much difference. What is the import of this line? On Dec 22, 2005, at 1:15 PM, Hans Hagen wrote:

Missing \setupcolors[state=start] maybe? (works for me)
Yes it is.
And what about a shaded frame?
You mean like a dropshadow or so?
Something like " \shadowbox{..}" using LaTeX package "fancybox" I just want to translate the simple macro I wrote time ago from LaTeX to ConTeXt: \newcommand{\attenzione}[1] { \begin{center} \( \shadowbox{ \begin{minipage}{0.8\textwidth} \color{red}\underline{\textbf{Attenzione}}\\ \color{black} #1 \end{minipage} } \) \end{center} }
jk
\setupcolors[state=start]
\startuniqueMPgraphic{shadow} fill OverlayBox shifted (3pt,-3pt) withcolor .8white ; fill OverlayBox withcolor white ; draw OverlayBox withcolor red ; setbounds currentpicture to OverlayBox ; \stopuniqueMPgraphic
\defineoverlay[shadow][\uniqueMPgraphic{shadow}]
\framed [align=middle,background=shadow,frame=off] {\input tufte \relax}
\blank
\framed [align=middle,background=shadow,frame=off] {\input zapf \relax}
