Hi,

setting the colour in \processisolatedwords doesn't always work.

\defineframed [myframe] [foregroundstyle=italic, foregroundcolor=blue]

\def\mycmd{\blue}

\starttext %% frame works \myframe{foo bar}

%% colour works \processisolatedwords{foo bar}\mycmd

%% style is applied, colour is ignored \processisolatedwords{foo bar}\myframe \stoptext

Why is the style applied but not the colour?

because we operate on snippets of boxes (so that one can have whatever arguments) I'll add this: \applytosplitstringchar \myframe{eleven twelve}\par \applytosplitstringword \myframe{eleven twelve}\par \applytosplitstringline \myframe{eleven twelve}\par \applytosplitstringcharspaced\myframe{eleven twelve}\par \applytosplitstringwordspaced\myframe{eleven twelve}\par \applytosplitstringlinespaced\myframe{eleven twelve}\par which operates on strings. Less robust but ok for simple strings like your "foo bar".
