using \doifmodeelse the right way

using \doifmodeelse the right way

[Peter Münster]

Hello,

\externalfigure[prefix-\doifmodeelse{blub}{blub}{notblub}][width=0.5\textwidth]
does not work.

I tried some combination of \expanded, \unexpanded, \expandafter etc but
without success. In the end, I write:
\doifmodeelse{blub}{%
  \externalfigure[prefix-blub][width=0.5\textwidth]}{%
  \externalfigure[prefix-notblub][width=0.5\textwidth]}

Is this the most elegant way, or do you know better?
(I would prefer less redundancy)

Cheers, Peter

you can use prefixes in the figuremechanism (see documentation about 
resource libs etc); it's part of a mechanism for runtime conversion 
(like downsampling) in combination with caching and such

like

\doifmodeelse{blub} {
  \useexternalfigure[blub][prefix-blub]
} { 
  \useexternalfigure[blub][prefix-noblub]
} 

\externalfigure[blub][width=0.5\textwidth]
