I think I would prefer a system where \definedocument[thesis] Automatically gets default (but not filled in) setups thesis:start and thesis:stop in before= and after=, but \definedocument[thesis][document] Would inherit the document:start and document:stop, and a thesis:stop and thesis:start in the case of a following \definedocument[mythesis][thesis] As this matches closely to how parents work in other \define calls. I find the current situation (with an implied ‘[document]’ parent) a tad confusing. But I am nitpicking :) Best wishes, Taco
i don't care what solution si chose as long as it doesn't break anything at my end
