Thanks, it was particularly the braces that I had overlooked.

Move both \definelayer and \setupbackgrounds to the start of the document and put braces ({...}) around the list entry.

    It is not clear to me. I have two \setupbackgrounds as you can
    see. If I put setupbackgrounds[page][background=blessings,tree]
    for the first one I get the tree but not the blessing graphic. If
    I also have the same for the second one
    (\setupbackgrounds[page][background=blessings,tree]) I get the
    blessings graphic but not the tree! I want both obviously. Sorry
    for being obtuse.

        Hi list,

        Is it possible to place two layers on the same page? I have
        several
        pages where that would be necessary. On the first of those
        pages, it did
        actually work, but on the remaining other pages, the second
        layer, even
        though located at the bottom of the page, eliminates the
        first layer. I
        have simply set them up one after the other. As you can see,
        the 1st is
        towards the top left of the page, while the second is bottom
        right.

        \definelayer[blessings]  % name of the layer
             [x=0mm, y=0mm,  % from upper left corner of paper
              width=\paperwidth, height=.5\paperheight] % let the
        layer cover
        the full paper
        \setlayer[blessings]    % name of the layer
             [hoffset=.09\textwidth, voffset=1.7cm]  % placement
        (from upper
        left corner of the layer)
             {\externalfigure[bless.eps][width=3cm]}  % the actual
        contents of
        the layer
        \setupbackgrounds[page][background=blessings]

        \definelayer[tree]  % name of the layer
             [x=0mm, y=0mm,  % from upper left corner of paper
              width=\paperwidth, height=\paperheight] % let the layer
        cover the
        full paper
        \setlayer[tree]    % name of the layer
             [hoffset=.75\textwidth, voffset=15.1cm]  % placement
        (from upper
        left corner of the layer)
        {\externalfigure[Pohutukawa.jpg][width=.5\textwidth]} % the
        actual
        contents of the layer
        \setupbackgrounds[page][background=tree]

        What am I doing wrong?



    \setupbackgrounds [page] [background={blessings,trees}]
