I tried to reproduce a framed example from the context-reference: Input taken from this example by copying the lines from the reference document: \starttext \framed [width=.2\hsize,height=3cm] {\cbox to 2.5cm{\hsize2.5cm just\\in the\\middle}} \stoptext result is wrong in comparison with the middle \cbox example. The text is not centered. Is framed at fault here? Hans van der Meer
