I don't understand what exactly that does and how to use it. Where do I
have to add this line?

[NTG-context] setups in the latest Context release
Hello Everyone
I have been using the following setup (provided by Wolfgang on this list)
to format my chapter headings till now. However, it does not work since
I upgraded by context installation today.
If the entire *\startlinealignment \stoplinealignment* block is
copied outside the setups then it works fine. So the change must
have been in the interface for *setups*.
Please let me know if there has been a change OR I have made some
kind of mistake.
Thank you,
Devendra Ghate

It’s 0.25ex on each side.

The definition of \startpagefigure in page-app.mkiv needs a change because
\externalfigureparameter\c!offset uses always the global setting.
% \def\page_figures_start[#1][#2]%
% {\bgroup
%\setupexternalfigure[\v!page:\v!figure][\c!offset=\v!overlay,#2]%
%\startTEXpage[\c!offset=\externalfigureparameter\c!offset]%
% \externalfigure[#1][\v!page:\v!figure]\ignorespaces} % so we can put
some text below the graphic
\def\page_figures_start[#1][#2]%
{\bgroup
\def\currentexternalfigure{\v!page:\v!figure}%
\setupcurrentexternalfigure[\c!offset=\v!overlay,#2]%
\startTEXpage[\c!offset=\externalfigureparameter\c!offset]%
\externalfigure[#1]\ignorespaces} % so we can put some text below the
graphic
\def\page_figures_start[#1][#2]%
{\bgroup
\setupexternalfigure[\v!page:\v!figure][\c!offset=\v!overlay,#2]%
\startTEXpage[\c!offset=\namedexternalfigureparameter{\v!page:\v!figure}\c!offset]%
\externalfigure[#1]\ignorespaces} % so we can put some text below the
graphic
BTW: You can use \pagefigure[] instead of
\startpagefigure[]\stoppagefigure.

[NTG-context] \startpagefigure[]\stoppagefigure enlarges page by 1 mm
Hello, \startpagefigure[...] ... \stoppagefigure enlarges page by 1 mm in both directions. This is an undesired effect as when the printer has auto-select-page mode on (which is useful when printing a document with mixed A4 and A3 pages) and an A4 page (210 x 297 mm) is enlarged to 211 x 298, the printer doesn't (auto)choose A4 but a nearest BIGGER page (8.5 x 13 in page in my case). Try the code: t.mkiv \starttext \startpagefigure[A4.pdf]\stoppagefigure \stoptext Is that a wanted behavior? How to avoid enlarging the inserted page? TIA.
