looping an overlay

looping an overlay

[Pablo Rodriguez]

Dear list,

I have the following sample:

  \starttext
    \startTEXpage[offset=1em]
      \startoverlay
        \dostepwiserecurse{25}{95}{5}
          {{\recurselevel\ }}
      \stopoverlay
    \stopTEXpage
  \stoptext

Which is the right way to loop an overlay?

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo

\starttext

\startluacode
context.startoverlay()
for i=25,95,5 do
     context("{%d}",i)
end
context.stopoverlay()
\stopluacode

\blank

\startcollecting
\collect{\startoverlay}
\dostepwiserecurse{25}{95}{5}{\collectexpanded{{\recurselevel}}}
\collect{\stopoverlay}
\stopcollecting

\stoptext
