Hi, just a remark: \startlinecorrection \stoplinecorrection is meant for stuff like \startlinecorrection \framed{....} \stoplinecorrection \startlinecorrection \externalfigure[...] \stoplinecorrection \startlinecorrection \startMPcode ... \stopMPcode \stoplinecorrection in the main text flow, i.e. boxed material with some visual boundary, which then gets boxed again with some heuristic before/after spacing and therefore it will not work well when hooked into before/after for heads and such that do their own spacing ... it's simply not meant for that (and its behaviour will not change) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.nl | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
