Thanks for the fast replies, great support !

Anyway, is there a way to access the defined textheight value (used in
many powerdot-styles) directly? Trying the \pd@@textheight thing does
not work.

I need a length which defines the available height in the "text" window
for positioning pictures using \rput and the textheight variable seems
to fit my needs.

Thanks and greetings
Björn
