I wanna put some complex commands (e.g. section and chapter) inside a box (vbox) so later I can compute the height of the block contains the text.



Here is the full example:



documentclass[11pt]{article}

newsavebox{samplebox}
newcommand{sampleboxcommand}[1]{
savebox{samplebox}{#1}
usebox{samplebox}
}
begin{document}

sampleboxcommand{
section{Section X}
subsection{Subsection Y}
}
end{document}


But it gives me many errors like:




  • Something's wrong--perhaps a missing item. }

  • Missing } inserted. }

  • Too many }'s. }


What's wrong with my code? If I replace the savebox and usebox with a simple vbox{#1} everything goes smoothly.
