Hello dear context-enthusiasts,

I want to place the pagenumber on a double-sided project with coordinates. I tried the layer-mechanism:

\setuppagenumbering[location=]

\definelayer   [pagenumber]   [width=\paperwidth,    height=\paperheight,    location={left,top},    x=120mm,y=220mm,    doublesided=yes]

\startsetups layer \setlayer[pagenumber][even]{\pagenumber} \stopsetups

\setupbackgrounds[page][setups=layer,background={pagenumber}]

\starttext ~\page~\page~\page \stoptext

And it works, but only for the left (even) page. On the right page I want to place the pagenumber on different coordinates. I tried to copy the layer and then change [even] to [odd] with different coordinates, but that did not work (no pagenumber printed). What do you suggest?

Use a doublesided layout. \setuppagenumbering [alternative={singlesided,doublesided}, location=none] \definelayer [pagenumber] [width=\paperwidth, height=\paperheight, x=12cm, y=22cm, doublesided=yes] \startsetups layer \setlayer[pagenumber][even][preset=lefttop]{\pagenumber} \setlayer[pagenumber][odd][preset=righttop]{\pagenumber} \stopsetups \setupbackgrounds[page][setups=layer,background=pagenumber] \starttext \dorecurse{10}{\page[dummy]} \stoptext Wolfgang
