jit.pack planecount

Hi,

what does the planecount message to jit.pack actually do ?

I was hoping to use it to limit the number of planes of my matrix to
the ones i really use..
for instance I want to pack some planes together, maximum eight, so I
use a [jit.pack 8].
but once in a while I want only six, so I send [planecount 6] to my
jit.pack, which I expected to result in jit.pack ignoring the last two
inputs ?
but the planecount message doesn't seem to make any difference.

what am I missing ?

ciao,

Joost.
