Dear Herbert,

I upgraded from pstricks 2.46 to pstricks 2.49c where overlay stuff has been moved to pst-ovl.
I have installed pst-ovl v0.04 and I can compile the pst-ovl-doc.

When I use powerdot, even with \usepackage{pts-ovl}, I get a postscript error when I open the file:



\documentclass[
  size=11pt,
  style=zen,
  paper=a4paper,
%%  Try me!
%%  orient=portrait,
%%  mode=handout,
  display=slidesnotes,
  pauseslide,
  nohandoutpagebreaks,
  fleqn,
  hlentries=true,
  hlsections=true
]{powerdot}
\usepackage{pst-ovl}

\begin{document}
\begin{slide}{Test}
\end{slide}
\end{document}


gsave 0  setgray  1. .setopacityalpha  fill  grestore end
@endspecial 0

SDict begin [/H /I/Border [0 0 0]BorderArr
--- End offending input ---
file offset = 140708
gsapi_run_string_continue returns -101


If I used the old pstricks.pro Version 1.17, 2013/07/08 where the stuff of overlay is inside, it works correctly.

I seems that powerdot does not used the txovlDict dictionary:

tx at Dict begin InitOL /TheOL (0) def end
-600 4178 a -600 4178 a
tx at Dict begin (0) BOL end
-600 4178 a -600 4178

Instead of
tx at Dict begin txovlDict begin InitOL /TheOL (0) def end
-600 4178 a -600 4178 a
tx at Dict begin (0) BOL end
-600 4178 a -600 4178

Any clue, thanks.

Best regards,

Patrice
