But that is just a joke. Try this:

\startTEXpage

\setupalign[middle]\offinterlineskip

\noindent \framed[width=4cm,height=2cm,offset=none]{}

\noindent \dorecurse{2}{\framed[width=4cm,height=2cm,offset=none]{}}

\noindent \dorecurse{3}{\framed[width=4cm,height=2cm,offset=none]{}}

\noindent \framed[width=2cm,height=4cm,offset=none]{}

\stopTEXpage

I made this: \usemodule[defaults] \setupoutput[pdf] \setuplayout[header=0in, footer=0in] \defineframed [action][width=5cm, height=3cm, offset=none] \defineframed [base] [width=3cm, height=2cm, offset=none] \starttext \setupalign[middle]\offinterlineskip \noindent \action{} \noindent \dorecurse{2}{\action{}} \noindent \dorecurse{3}{\action{}} \dorecurse{7}{ \noindent \base{} } \stoptext Work like a charm. There is only one minor problem: where frame's touch eachother, the line is a little bit thicker. Is there something to be done about this? In this case I wanted everything to be centered, but is it possible to define the point of the upper corner of a frame? -- Cecil Westerhof

I had allready looked there, but it has very little information. Not even the height parameter. Let alone something about placing the frame at a certain spot. So, is there a place to find all the parameters that can be used with framed? -- Cecil Westerhof

There is TeXshow-web, accessible through the contextgarden. Look for setupframed.

At the moment the site can not be reached. I'll try it later. -- Cecil Westerhof Senior Software Engineer LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/cecilwesterhof

%% save it as test.tex \starttext \hbox{% NO GOOD \framed[width=6cm,height=8cm,align={lohi,middle}]{\input ward }% \framed[width=6cm,height=8cm,align={lohi,middle}]{\input ward }% }

\blank

\hbox{% GOOD ? \framed[width=6cm,height=8cm,rightframe=off,align={lohi,middle}]{\input ward }% \framed[width=6cm,height=8cm,align={lohi,middle}]{\input ward }% }

\stoptext

Thanks. I made it now: \usemodule[defaults] \setupoutput[pdf] \setuplayout[header=0cm, footer=0.25cm] \defineframed [action][width=5cm, height=3cm, offset=none] \defineframed [base] [width=3cm, height=2cm, offset=none, topframe=off] \starttext \setupheader[state=high] \setupfootertexts[\hfill {\switchtobodyfont[6pt]\copyright Decebal Computing, http://www.decebal.nl} \hfill][] [][right header] \setupalign[middle]\offinterlineskip \noindent\action[bottomframe=off]{} \noindent\action[bottomframe=off,rightframe=off]{}\action[bottomframe=off]{} \noindent\dorecurse{2}{\action[rightframe=off]{}}\action{} \dorecurse{7}{ \noindent \base{} } \stoptext Still another question. I have to write: \noindent\action[bottomframe=off,rightframe=off]{}\action[bottomframe=off]{} because the following does not work: \noindent\action[bottomframe=off,rightframe=off]{} \action[bottomframe=off]{} But the second I find more readable.

Still another question. I have to write:    \noindent\action[bottomframe=off,rightframe=off]{}\action[bottomframe=off]{} because the following does not work:    \noindent\action[bottomframe=off,rightframe=off]{}    \action[bottomframe=off]{} But the second I find more readable. Is there a way to make it more readable?

Tex is space-sensitive. Use comment sign '%' as Aditya says , is a robust way to make code readable. When I'm writing some small macro, I use them just from the beginning, to avoid surprise after (like in this situation). Anyway your example shows some strange things about overlap of rules that I like to investigate. -- luigi
