Sorry. me again...and I have been all over the wiki, mailing lists and manuals...
I have this:
\setlayer [progresssteps] % name of the layer [hoffset=904 px, voffset= 28\nuggetnumber px] % placement (from upper left corner of the layer) {\stepstack} % the actual contents of the layer
And I am hoping that as I increase nuggetnumber the voffset of the layer will be 28*nuggetnumber
Variant 1: \newdimen\baseoffset \baseoffset=28px \setlayer[…][voffset=4\nuggetnumber]{…} Variant 2: \def\nuggetnumber{4} \setlayer[…][voffset=\dimexpr28px*\nuggetnumber\relax]{…} Variant 3 (what i suggest): \definemeasure[baseoffset][28px] \definemeasure[verticaloffset][\dimexpr\measure{baseoffset}*4\relax] % replace “4” with your own factor \setlayer[…][voffset=\measure{verticaloffset}]{…} Wolfgang
