Again thanks for the answer. It seems to me that I have three possibilities:
1.) I can use $this->getContext()->getRequest()->setAttribute('style', '<style>.item{width='.$width.'px;}</style'); and use <?php echo $sf_request->getAttribute('style') ?> in layout.php 2.) I can use a slot 3.) I can define another layout file in view.yml for the module (at least I think). Which of these options is best performance wise, how do they affect caching?
