 Hi Reza,

 I don’t know whether this is a bug or a feature.

 But this document might achieve what (I guess) you want (as you wrote
 yourself):

  \definelayer[MyLayer]
 \setlayer[MyLayer][x=0cm,y=4.5cm]
 {\externalfigure[cow][width=2cm]}
 \setupbackgrounds[page][background=MyLayer]
   \starttext
   \dorecurse{5}{\input knuth}
   \stoptext

  Also there seems to be a bug with \showframe. When I use this command
  my figure is only displayed on the first page (as desired).

 I wasn’t able to reproduce this.

 Placing \showframe before of after \setupbackgrounds in the previous
 document, states (http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Layers#State) work fine.

 I hope it helps,


 Pablo

Thanks Pablo

I already used this solution. For me it looks like a bug that the state
argument does not change anything because the manual clearly states the
expected behaviour of state.
But anyhow I'll use the other solution.

Cheers,
Reza

[NTG-context] Problems with repeating layers

2014-12-07 Thread Reza Housseini
Hello

I try to use layers to position a figure on top of the leftmargin area. I
use code like the following:

\definelayer[MyLayer][option=test]
\setupbackgrounds[text][leftmargin][background=MyLayer]
\setlayer[MyLayer][x=0cm,y=0cm]
{\externalfigure[cow][width=2cm]}

This image get's repeated every page but I only want it on the first page.
The parameter state=start does not change anything. Is there a way to
disable the layer on the next page. Also there seems to be a bug with
\showframe. When I use this command my figure is only displayed on the
first page (as desired).
When I use

\setupbackgrounds[page][background=MyLayer]

this problem does not occur. But I have to shift the figure to place it in
the leftmargin.

I tried to use another concept like

\definelayer[test]
\startuseMPgraphic{oeps}
register (somepos-1,0cm,0cm,center currentpicture) ;
\stopuseMPgraphic
\setMPlayer [test] [somepos-1]
{\externalfigure[cow][width=2cm]}
\getMPlayer [test] {\useMPgraphic{oeps}}

but that does not seem to work at all.

Thanks for any help

Cheers,
Reza

[NTG-context] Why is my module not automatically included?

2013-09-14 Thread Reza Housseini
Hello list

I tried to compile the CV from [1] with context. But it does not recognize
the module m.resume.tex in the same directory, I had to use the flag
--usemodule=m-resume.tex. Why is that so and is there a way to let context
detect my module automatically?

Thanks for any hints.

Cheers
Reza
