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.
