Subject: dorecurse within combination
Date: Thu, 7 Jul 2022 20:52:11 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <9202d014-6a7d-6b2e-a38b-9f9254047635@fiee.net> (raw)

Hi, I’d like to place pages from a multipage PDF in a combination:

\startcombination[3*1]
\dorecurse{3}{%
   {\externalfigure[multipage][width=\textwidth/3,page=\recurselevel]}{}
}
\stopcombination

That doesn’t work, because ConTeXt expects a { after \startcombination. 
(“A left brace was mandatory here, so I've put one in.”)
I guess I need some expansion, but \expanded doesn’t help.

How can I do this?

Hraban
