That's exactly what I was looking for … thanks very much!
Out of curiosity just a few questions … why do you use grouping in the
MetaPost code and why do you draw the bounding box explicitly? When I
was experimenting with your suggestion a bit I tried leaving out those
two commands at some point and surprisingly things still looked fine …
And what's the difference between \startreusableMPgraphic and
\startuseMPgraphic? Does caching play a role?
Thanks again,
Oliver
