One of the features that it has is an overview screen at the end, like this: http://impressive.sourceforge.net/oview.png This is similar to the overview screen used in the ConTeXt showcase by Hans: http://pragma-ade.com/show-man.pdf I want to include such an overview in my slides, but am not sure if it can be done without using a separate tex file. My slides look like this (sorry Thomas, I am not using simpleslides at the moment) \starttext \startsection[title={...}] .... \stopsection \startsection[...] ... \stopsection \stoptext Each section spans over multiple pages. What I want is to have a last page which is equivalent to the following: \startcombination[n*n] {\externalfigure[\jobname][page=]}{} {\externalfigure[\jobname][page=]}{} .... \stopcombination I tried a simple test case \starttext \input knuth \page \externalfigure[\jobname][page=1,width=0.3\textwidth] \stoptext but that does not include the first page. So, I think that what I want is not possible, but I wonder if others have different ideas on how this might be implemented (after all \setuparranging does manage to do something similar without the need for a separate tex file).
