I more or less guess there are only a restricted number of overlays  
possible? Could that be a correct conclusion?
The elegant way would have been being able to define separate  
positionoverlays for each picture, imho. However I found a practical  
solution in defining all items centrally within one positionoverlay.  
Up till now it has not failed, so I can live with that, but I cross  
my fingers it will still hold for a few hundred positional graphics.
