Hi all,

In Metafun when representing a point I woul dlike to have some dots represented 
by a square (or even by another scalable symbol): for instance in the following 
I would like the dot at the point B to be a square:

\starttext
\startMPcode
draw (2cm,3cm) -- (3cm,5cm) ;
dotlabel(textext("\switchtobodyfont[8pt]" & "A"), (2cm,3cm)) 
        withpen pencircle scaled 12pt 
        withcolor transparent("exclusion",.5,red) ;

dotlabel(textext("\switchtobodyfont[8pt]" & "B"), (3cm,5cm)) 
        withpen pencircle scaled 12pt 
        withcolor transparent("exclusion",.5,red) ;
\stopMPcode
\stoptext

I wonder whether it is possible to define something like « drawsquaredot » or « 
squaredotlabel » in order to do this.
If I use for B the command
        withpen pensquare scaled 12pt
then the dot is a square, but the label B is drawn in a strange way.

Thanks for any help: Otared
