Hi, In 2008.08.18 14:00 MKIV the background color of sometxt is ignored. I used to use this trick to unfill the background while drawing a label, but it no longer works (It used to work a month ago).
Bug or feature? \unprotected\definetextext[parbox] {\framed [ frame=off, width=2cm, height=.85cm, autowidth=no, align={middle,middle}, background=color, backgroundcolor=white]} \starttext \startMPcode draw (0,0) -- (3cm,3cm) ; label(\sometxt[parbox]{ABC}, (1.5cm,1.5cm)) ; \stopMPcode \stoptext Aditya ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
