Description

\setupbackgrounds is used to draw frames or backgrounds that cover specific areas of the page, under the text layer.

The first parameter sets the main layout area; the optional second one specifies the linked subarea(s) of the prior. Not all main areas have such subareas.

Because \showframe and \setupbackgrounds both draw frameboxes over parts of the page, the order in which they are invoked matters. In most cases, \setupbackgrounds should come last.

Example

\setuppapersize[A10]
\showframe

% \setupbackgrounds should be placed *after* \showframe, 

\setupbackgrounds[footer]  [background=color, backgroundcolor=blue]
\setupbackgrounds[footer]  [leftmargin] [background=color, backgroundcolor=red]

\setupbackgrounds[text] [background=color, backgroundcolor=lightgray]
\setupbackgrounds[text] [rightmargin] [background=color, backgroundcolor=yellow]
