Hi, I'm still trying to place my running heads into the margin, 5 cm away from the top. My new attempt is to use layer: \definelayer[colin][width=\paperwidth,height=\paperheight,x=0mm,y=0mm] \setlayer[colin][x=5cm,y=3cm]{\framed{\getmarking[chapter][current]}} \setupbackgrounds[page][background=colin] But it doesn't seem to work either. Does anyone know why it is? Many thanks! Sincerely, Helin -- Helin (Colin) Gai Class of 2009, Duke University Box 96332 Durham, NC 27708 Phone: 919-943-6302 helin.gai at gmail.com hg9 at duke.edu

Maybe because the layer is not evaluated for each page. You can try putting the \setlayer stuff inside \setupheadertexts or append them to beforeeverypage or aftereverypage, like \appendtoks \setlayer[...] \to \aftereverypage Aditya

\startsetups make:headers \setlayer[colin][x=5cm,y=3cm]{\framed{\getmarking[chapter][current]}} \stopsetups \setupbackgrounds[page][setups=make:headers,background=colin] you need to postpone/repeat the action H ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
