Hello
I try to use layers to position a figure on top of the leftmargin area. I
use code like the following:
\definelayer[MyLayer][option=test]
\setupbackgrounds[text][leftmargin][background=MyLayer]
\setlayer[MyLayer][x=0cm,y=0cm]
{\externalfigure[cow][width=2cm]}
This image get's repeated every page but I only want it on the first page.
The parameter state=start does not change anything. Is there a way to
disable the layer on the next page. Also there seems to be a bug with
\showframe. When I use this command my figure is only displayed on the
first page (as desired).
When I use
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=MyLayer]
this problem does not occur. But I have to shift the figure to place it in
the leftmargin.
I tried to use another concept like
\definelayer[test]
\startuseMPgraphic{oeps}
register ("somepos-1",0cm,0cm,center currentpicture) ;
\stopuseMPgraphic
\setMPlayer [test] [somepos-1]
{\externalfigure[cow][width=2cm]}
\getMPlayer [test] {\useMPgraphic{oeps}}
but that does not seem to work at all.
Thanks for any help
Cheers,
Reza
