You have to use thisbox.foo = thisbox.bar * 2. You can just type "width", "height", and any other special box property though. I don't really agree with this either. I'd rather be able to do foo = bar * 2. My original declare before use patches allowed this but requiring thisbox.foo simplifies the code in the core a bit. -Brian
