I would like to know wether there is a way to test if a macro evaluates to nothing.
I tried the following: <div tal:condition="here/my_macros/macros/macro_name" metal:use-macro="here/my_macros/macros/macro_name"> </div>
But the macro returns a tree of lists and tuples.
I thnk you're misusing the macro feature here. Why does you macro substitution end up in not generating any output in certain circumtances?

It's the normal way it works in plone. There the macro portlet_fetcher calls several macros of which some might be empty, because the user is not authenticated or there is just nothing to show. I would like to add some markup around those portlets and currently I have to edit each portlet macro, because the markup shouldn't be there when the macro is empty. Thanks and regards, Florian Schulze
