Hi, I was also experiencing unexpected results when using a hairline in the header. I found this solution for a line (I think it's somewhere in the wiki): \setupbackgrounds[header][text][frame=off, bottomframe=on,rulethickness=.5pt]
The drawback is, that you'll have to use \setuphead[chapter][header=high] If you want no header on pages where a chapter starts. If you use 'empty', the line will still be there (since it's no really part of the header, but the background). > -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- > Von: ntg-context-boun...@ntg.nl [mailto:ntg-context-boun...@ntg.nl] Im > Auftrag von Cecil Westerhof > Gesendet: Dienstag, 19.
