Hi, the nested color inherits the transparency from it's surrounding color.
\definecolor[colA] [r=0,g=0,b=0.01,t=0.2,a=1] % transparent \definecolor[colB] [r=.278431,g=.235294,b=.545098] % opaque \starttext \startcolor[colA] \definedfont[SansBold at 96bp]Titanfall\, \startcolor[colB]2\stopcolor \stopcolor \stoptext ConTeXt version: 2014.11.26 21:43 Maybe intended behaviour, maybe a bug. Donno. Best wishes, Peter
