Thanks Aditya,

that is what I need. I don't really understand the difference between framedtext and textbackground, but all my framing and coloring
desires seem to be realizable with framedtext.

Dear all,

my problem with framed text persists in paragraphs: The frame extends over the entire page as soon as the
paragraph has more than one line. Problem exists in mkii and mkiv.
Minimal example below.

I have seen this before when trying to use textbacground to highlight stuff in tables. I don't know a solution, but if want to highlight whole paragrah, and do not want the ability to split across pages, you can use framed texts.

\setupcolors[state=start]
\setupcolor[rgb]


\defineframedtext
 [defbackground]
 [backgroundcolor=lightgray,
  background=color,
  width=broad,
  frame=on,
  location=paragraph]


\defineparagraphs
 [TwoThird][n=2]
\setupparagraphs
 [TwoThird]
 [1]
 [width=.66\textwidth]


\starttext

\startTwoThird
\startdefbackground
The frame is too wide.
The frame is too wide.
The frame is too wide.
\stopdefbackground
%
\nextTwoThird
\placefigure
[here]
[figure:cow]
{Mooh}
{\externalfigure[cow][width=.3\textwidth]}
\stopTwoThird

\stoptext

Aditya
