Thks. I was incorrectly assuming that the dimension properties, especially width, should be set in \definelayer. I'm not clear on the purpose of a separate \definelayer command, unless it's to allow the abstraction of layer offsets from topspace and backspace value, the way I have in this example. It works now, though, and I'll accept that as an answer given my unwillingness to review that code for \definelayer ;-) -- david
