For "historic" reasons,
draw externalfigure "cow" scaled 5cm ;
normalizes the figure to a square. This will not be changed as it
is a very old feature of MetaFun.
The solution is
draw rawtextext("\externalfigure[cow]") xsized 5cm ;
where one can use xsized, ysized or xysized (taking a pair).
That works indeed. Thanks.
draw figure "...." ...
That's what I was looking for. Thanks.
the "externalfigure" variant is an old one that had to deal with
dimensions in a way that avoids overflows
in a future context (read luatex 1.09+) we go one-pass-mp so we can have
a different approach (i never wanted to add a ton of code for images) so
there externalfigure will scale proportionally too
