Re: [NTG-context] Page Background

7 Nov 2009


      Hello Wolfgang,
...
\definelayer[...][...,state=continue,...]
I tried that before I posted my question but that didn't work. See below a minimal sample. 
I am using ConTeXt  ver: 2009.10.02 13:14 MKIV  and also tried it with ConTeXt  ver: 2009.11.02 21:31 MKIV.

best regards

Wolfgang Murth
