Re: [NTG-context] About \setupheadertexts : simplify a code

      Hi Aditya,

I tried to typeset your example, but got an error: whether or not the command
	% macros=mkvi
is present on the fist line, then ConTeXt complains saying that
	! Illegal parameter number in definition of \MyHeader
and stops typesetting pointing to the command \stoptexdefinition.

What am I missing here?
Thanks for your attention: OK

Hello,
To get the alignment, I had to create three \vbox. Can we simplify this code a bit ?
Thank you
Fabrice
Use the optional argument of the new framed you defined.
In addition to that, you can also simplify other things as well. This is how I would have done it:
% macros=mkvi
\showframe
\setuplayout
  [header=3\lineheight,
   headerdistance=\lineheight]
\setupbackgrounds
 [header]
 [text]
 [
   frame=off,
   bottomframe=on,
   framecolor=darkgray,
   rulethickness=2pt,
 ]
\defineframed[headerframed]
            [
              frame=off, % For visualization set this to on
              height=fit,
              width=fit,
              location=bottom,
              boffset=\lineheight,
            ]
\starttexdefinition MyHeader #where #day #month #year #title #number #time
\setupheadertexts
     [{\headerframed[align=middle, foregroundstyle=bold, foregroundcolor=red]
           {#title n\high{o}\,#number}}]
\setupheadertexts
     [{\headerframed[align=flushleft, foregroundstyle=\ssx]
         {Lycée JANSON DE SAILLY \\ \date[d=#day,m=#month,y=#year]}}]
     [{\headerframed[align=flushright, foregroundstyle=\ssx]
         {#where \\ {#time}}}]
\stoptexdefinition
\MyHeader{Seconde}{17}{08}{2017}{Devoir surveillé}{1}{1h\,30m}
\starttext
\input knuth
\stoptext
An added benefit is that you get correct interlinespace for the left and right header.
