Since my previous post doesn't seem inspiring at all (sniff), here is a simplified and more precise description of what need to be done: 1 − I need a full textwidth black line as separator with a short title centered vertically at left 2 − This separator must be followed by text, and the inbetween vertical space must be configurable (i.e. .5lineheight or a full lineheight doesn't satisfy me) My first idea has been to combine a vertically centered line with inleft or inmargin but that introduces an annoying afterspace… Another idea could be to combine some \hairlines or full textwidth fillinline but then don't know how to vertically align my inmargin text… −−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−− TEST \setuplayout[reset] \setuplayout[ location=singlesided, leftedge=0mm, leftmargin=25mm, rightedge=0mm, rightmargin=0mm, backspace=40mm, topspace=10mm, bottomspace=10mm, header=0mm, headerdistance=0mm, footer=0mm, footerdistance=0mm, margindistance=0mm, height=fit, width=fit, grid=yes] \setuppagenumbering[state=stop] \setupinmargin[style=normal,align=outer] \starttext \inmargin{blurp}{\line{\leaders\hbox{\vrule width 1pt height .5\strutht depth -\dimexpr.5\strutht-\linewidth\relax} \hfil}} This is not a test \stoptext −−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−
