Thanks. Please let us know if this addition of location=none will be taken up in a future beta. I also realised that the effect wanted can be obtained by dividing the single \noheaderandfooterlines into two additional macros \noheaderlines and \nofooterlines Is that a viable idea too?

This can be accomplished by: \setupheader[state=stop] \setupfooter[text][before=\hairline,style=small,location=left,strut=yes] \setupfootertexts[some text][pagenumber] I want the first page without that footer, to be done with: \noheaderandfooterlines But then comes the problem, because afterwards the default takes over and on the subsequent pages the pagenumber starts to appear in the header (the default setting apparently). Thus the \noheaderandfooterlines annuls the \setupheader[state=stop] I did not find out how to get rid of the default pagenumber. \setuppagenumber[state=stop] kills all pagenumbering, the programmed one in the leftbottom corner too. \setuppagenumbering[state=stop] kills all pagenumbers, included the one I want to appear. \setuppagenumbering[location=none] merely puts the pagenumber in the middle of the footer, obviously location=none has no meaning in ConTeXt. So, I am at the end of the possibilities I can think of. How to? Context performs only a check for a empty argument of the location key (i.e. \setuppagenumbering[location=]) and in all other keys checks the argument for a valid keyword, all unknown keywords are ignored. The ignored “none” keyword can be added by a simple change in the file page-txt.mkvi and I think such a change would make sense because there are many places “none” is used when you disable a function. \unexpanded\def\strc_pagenumbers_set_location {\edef\p_strc_pagenumbers_location{\directpagenumberingparameter\c!location}% \ifx\p_strc_pagenumbers_location\m_page_layouts_page_number_location % unchanged \else \let\m_page_layouts_page_number_location\p_strc_pagenumbers_location \page_layouts_reset_page_number_location \ifx\p_strc_pagenumbers_location\empty % set otherwise - \else + \else\ifx\p_strc_pagenumbers_location\v!none + % set otherwise + \else \page_layouts_identify_page_number_location \page_layouts_set_page_number_location - \fi + \fi\fi \fi} Wolfgang ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nlmailto:ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________

Would it be a good idea to add to the definition of \noheaderandfooterlines? For example \def\noheaderandfooterlines{..} % Separately kill header and footerlines on the current page. \def\noheaderlines{\setuplayoutelement[header][state=empty]} \def\nofooterlines{\setuplayoutelement[footer][state=empty]} I added these to my macroset, because I find \noheaderlines easier to remember than \setuplayoutelement[header][state=empty].
