\chapter{Additional Information about package \Package{typearea}}
\labelbase{typearea-experts}

This chapter gives additional information about package
\Package{typearea}. \iffree{Some parts of the chapter are subject to the
  \KOMAScript{} book \cite{book:komascript} only. This should not be a
  problem, because the}{The} average user, who only want to use the package,
does not need the information that is addressed to users with non-standard
requirements or who want to write their own packages using
\Package{typearea}. Another part of the information describes features of
\Package{typearea} that exist only because of compatibility to former releases
of \KOMAScript{} or the standard classes. The features, that exist only
because of compatibility to former \KOMAScript{} releases, are printed with a
sans serif font. You should not use them any longer.


\section{Expert Commands}
\label{sec:typearea-experts.experts}

This section describes commands that are not of interest for average
users. Nevertheless these commands provide additional features for
experts. Because the information is addressed to experts it's condensed.

\begin{Declaration}
  \Macro{activateareas}
\end{Declaration}%
\BeginIndex{Cmd}{activateareas}%
Package \Package{typearea} uses this command to assign settings of typing area
and margins to internal \LaTeX{} lengths, whenever the type area is newly
calculated inside of the document, i\.e., after
\Macro{begin}\PParameter{document}. If option \Option{pagesize} has been used,
it will be executed again afterward. With this, e.\,g., the page size may vary
inside of a PDF document.

Experts may use this command, if they change lengths like \Length{textwidth}
or \Length{textheight} inside a document manually for any reason. Nevertheless
the expert himself is responsible for eventually needed page breaks before or
after usage of \Macro{activateareas}. Moreover all changes of
\Macro{activateareas} are local!%
% 
\EndIndex{Cmd}{activateareas}

\begin{Declaration}
  \Macro{storeareas}\Parameter{\Macro{command}}
\end{Declaration}
\BeginIndex{Cmd}{storearea}%
With \Macro{storeareas} a \PName{\Macro{command}} will be defined that may be
used to restore all current settings of typing area and margins. This provides
to store the current settings, change them, do anything with valid changed
settings and restore the previous settings afterwards.

\begin{Example}
  You want a landscape page inside a document with portrait format. No problem
  using \Macro{storeareas}:
\begin{lstcode}
  \documentclass[pagesize]{scrartcl}

  \begin{document}
  \noindent\rule{\textwidth}{\textheight}

  \storeareas\MySavedValues
  \KOMAoptions{paper=landscape,DIV=current}
  \noindent\rule{\textwidth}{\textheight}

  \clearpage
  \MySavedValues
  \noindent\rule{\textwidth}{\textheight}
  \end{document}
\end{lstcode}
  Command \Macro{clearpage}\textnote{Attention} before calling
  \Macro{MySavedValues} is important to restore the saved values at the next
  page.
\end{Example}
In the example \Macro{noindent} has been used to avoid the paragraph indent of
the black boxes. Without these commands the boxes would not show the 
typing area correctly.

Please note\textnote{Attention!} that neither \Macro{storeareas} nor the
defined \PName{\Macro{command}} should be used inside a group. Internally
\Macro{newcommand}\IndexCmd{newcommand*}\important{\Macro{newcommand*}} is
used to define the \PName{\Macro{command}}. So re-usage of a
\PName{\Macro{command}} to store settings again would result in a
corresponding error message.
%
\EndIndex{Cmd}{storeareas}

\begin{Declaration}
  \Macro{AfterCalculatingTypearea}\Parameter{instructions}\\
  \Macro{AfterCalculatingTypearea*}\Parameter{instructions}\\
  \Macro{AfterSettingArea}\Parameter{instructions}\\
  \Macro{AfterSettingArea*}\Parameter{instructions}
\end{Declaration}%
\BeginIndex{Cmd}{AfterCalculatingTypearea}%
These commands manage \emph{hooks}. \Macro{AfterCalculatingTypearea} and it's
star version provide experts to execute \PName{instructions} every time
\Package{typearea} has recalculated the typing area and margins either
implicitly or because of an explicit usage of \Macro{typearea}. Similar
\Macro{AfterSettingArea}\ChangedAt{v3.11}{\Package{typearea}} and it's star
version provide execution of \PName{instructions} every time \Macro{areaset}
has been used. While normal versions work globally the influence of the star
versions is only local. The \PName{instructions} will be executed instantly
before execution of \Macro{activateareas}.\iffree{}{ In
  \autoref{cha:modernletters} \Macro{AfterCalculatingTypearea} will be used in
  letter class option \File{asymTypB.lco} to change the division of the
  margins.}%
