Hi Hraban,
slightly modifying your MWE, I think I get what might fit your needs
(see below).
I never used \flushlayer and your sample shows that it doesn’t fit here.
The layer is relative to the page, not to the paper in this case.
And the state is an option for the layer (in \definelayer), not for the
background, being "start" its default value.
Just in case it might help,

Re: [NTG-context] placing (on) layers
Hi Willi,
thank you, I wasn’t aware that \flushlayer works this way. This was also
the problem in my real project.
And I had the wrong layer mentioned in \setupbackgrounds from another test.
Also, cropoffset was interfering in the real project, see my other mail.

if you flush a layer like in your example, then the layer is attached to the

have to move it by x and y dimensions to the right place in the first brackets
of the \setlayerframed command . — What would be possible is to attach the

I hope this gives you a hint how to proceed..

[NTG-context] to XMP info?
Hi Hans, I need to access the document language using Poppler’s GObject introspection. Right now, the only way to do that would be to have (https://raw.githubusercontent.com/adobe/XMP-Toolkit-SDK/main/docs/XMPSpecificationPart1.pdf#search=dc:language) in the XMP metadata included in the PDF file. Would it be possible to have included in the XMP metadata (besides other DC elements, such as author, title, description or format)?

I must admit that I am not a (LuaMetaT)eXpert. My limited understanding is that it might be due to expansion and the behaviour of (start|stop)item, or equivalently (start|stop)itemgroupitem. It does not seem to group like (most?) other groups. (see strc-itm.mklx) For instance if we switch to bold without grouping inside \(start|stop)item it cascades through. \startitemize[circle] \startitem \bf First \stopitem \startitem Second \stopitem \startitem Third \stopitem \startitem Fourth \stopitem \stopitemize In fact, you could just put the lefttoright call inside context.(bgroup| egroup): see p. 196 of the cld manual.

Many thanks, this solved my problems. I understand
context.startitemize() is designed to get several vectors as arguments,
something I didn't thought about.
Could you explain the whereabouts of calling to context.(start|stop)()?
Some expansion stuff?
In my MWE, only the first item was left-to-right.

Strangely, my attachments never make it to the list. Trying again: attached an

\startMPcode
draw textext("\m{\max_i x_i}");

The MWE works fine[1] in

if that helps track down when the breaking change was made.
