Hello all,

After a good break I'm back at my XML obsession and am running into the following issue: my environment-file contains these definitions

\defineXMLnested [reagentlist] [sample=] {\definedescription[definition][width=broad,distance=1em,sample={\XMLop{sample}}]} {}

\definedescription[definition][width=broad,distance=1em,sample={\XMLpar{reagentlist}{sample}{}} since XMLop will change with each following element {\expanded{\definedescription[definition][width=broad,distance=1em,sample={\XMLop{sample}}]}} is also an option

\defineXMLnested [reagent] [label=] {\startdefinition{\XMLop{label}}} {\stopdefinition}

but in use, the definition-label-width is optimized for every single case, rather than for the 'sample', meaning I get

One xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Twentyone xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

rather than

One xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Twentyone xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Can anyone please enlighten me as to what I'm missing here?

Thanks, Joh
