I'm still not able to get fillcolor to work with the information box: \starttikzpicture[scale=4,information text/.style={fill=red}] \draw[xshift=1.85cm] node[right,text width=6cm,information text] { The \color[green]{angle $\alpha$} is $30^\circ$ in the example ($\pi/6$ in radians). The \color[red]{sine of $\alpha$}, which is the height of the red line, is \startformula \color[red]{\sin \alpha} = 1/2. \stopformula By the Theorem of Pythagoras ... }; Is ConTeXt correctly parsing the key "information tex/.style"?
