Hi again,

I’m always struggling with putting stuff on layers, since these just never start where I’d expect them to, and the offsets changed a few times within the last years.

Please explain how I should define a layer that covers the whole page, since the following MWE is wrong (the layer always starts below the first line):


\useMPlibrary[dum]

\setuppapersize[A5][A4]
\setuplayout[
  marking=on,
  location=middle,
]
\definemeasure[Bleed][3mm]
\definemeasure[MaxHeight][{\dimexpr\paperheight + 2\measure{Bleed}\relax}]
\definemeasure[MaxWidth][{\dimexpr\paperwidth + 2\measure{Bleed}\relax}]

\definelayer[papier][
  preset=lefttop,
  %x=0mm,y=0mm,
  width=\paperwidth,
  height=\paperheight,
]
\setupbackgrounds[paper][background=cover,state=start]


\starttext
\showframe
TEST

\setlayerframed[papier][
  preset=lefttop,
  %x=-\measure{Bleed},
  %y=-\measure{Bleed},
  offset=overlay,
  %frame=off,
  width=\measure{MaxWidth},
  height=\measure{MaxHeight},
]{\externalfigure[dummy][
  width=\measure{MaxWidth},height=\measure{MaxHeight}
]}

\flushlayer[papier]

\stoptext
