Wolfgang, Thank you. That is very close.
Replace the line above with this block:
\startframed[frame=off,align=normal,offset=none,foregroundstyle=\tfc,foregroundcolor=darkgray] \getvariable{titlepage}{title} \stopframed
That left-aligns it; I need to right align it. Already tried align=right and align=flushright, none of which worked. I am just guessing here as there does not seem to be any documentation available on \startframed. How can I right-align this?
Thank you.
Malte.

Hello,
I am using a the startsetups mechanism that defines a title page in my environment file. That way anyone creating a document in my organisation can create a new document and get a consistent look of the title page. There is one problem with this: On occasions I get very long document titles and then the title extends over the left-hand edge of the page. I would like to incorporate a new line into the document title; I'd even be happy to do that manually, ie. it does not have to be automatic.
There are two problems here: 1. I had not had any success with putting a newline into the title; it will need to be not where the titlepage is defined but where it is used (see below). I have tried \par and \\ and none of them work. 2. Assuming I found a way to do this, I would need to also find a way of reducing the \blank[170mm] by the amount that the second line of the title takes up to render the information down the bottom in roughly the same place. If push comes to shove, I could create a second titlepage setup for two-line titles, but I much rather not. Is there a solution to that? Is there maybe a way to position the information down the bottom absolute?
Here is minimal example (or something very close to that):
% The title page \startsetups titlepage \startstandardmakeup[style=sans] \blank[50mm] \rightaligned{\bfd\getvariable{titlepage}{project}} \textrule \rightaligned{\tfc\color[darkgray]{\getvariable{titlepage}{title}}}
Replace the line above with this block: \startframed[frame=off,align=normal,offset=none,foregroundstyle=\tfc,foregroundcolor=darkgray] \getvariable{titlepage}{title} \stopframed Wolfgang
