something like state=once would be handy but i'm not going to touch that code till i'm redoing some page-* code in mkiv I don't get it, the "once" made me confused. Should that just be "affectedpage=current" or "range={1,2,15}" which will make more sense to me. I don't know the range for "once"

well, we have already state=repeat: same background each upcoming page state=start : enable background (calculate each time) state=stop : disable backgrond so we would have state=once : enable background and after this page disable it in this case 'once' is kind of "start" before and "stop" after \page a range makes not much sense as one seldom knows the page in advance so that would then be named pages; however, as we have 25 page areas it would involve more testing then i currently want to do (the otr is already not that fast) ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
