php - Access smarty loop property in included file? -

when using smarty provides few useful @properties on looping key such @first @last , @iteration.

but seems in loops like

{foreach $collection $item}     {include file="something_else.tpl"} {/foreach}

we seem lose @properties.

if want access properties there more elegant way passing properties included file?

{foreach $collection $item}     {include file="something_else.tpl" first=$item@first last=$item@last iter...} {/foreach}

basically no. maybe can use mixed syntax. add name foreach , try access properties via {$smarty.foreach.name.property}.
