Hi all,
I am new to context and need help in solving an error.
I am trying to print some numbers in a grid onto a transparent sheet as mirror images so
that the numbers are correctly displayed when I view it from the non printed side. The
numbers have a particular sequence which cannot be obtained from calculations. So, they
are stored in an array of strings : l[0][0] := "38"; ...
I place them at the centre of the grid squares using the code below:
for i= 0 upto (row - 1):
for j= 0 upto (col - 1):
middle := 0.5[((( i * unit) + lm), ((j * unit) + bm)), ((((i+1) * unit) + lm),
(((j +1) * unit) + bm))];
p := thelabel(l[j][i], middle);
draw p;
% q := p reflectedabout (0.5[urcorner p, ulcorner p], 0.5[lrcorner p, llcorner
p]);
% draw q;
endfor
endfor
This works as expected. But, when I try to reflect the label by means of the
commented code, I get an error :
tex error > mp error on line 643 in file

I'm unable to apply a partially specified transformation
except to a fully known pair or transform.
Proceed, and I'll omit the transformation.
I tried a mock example without the loops and that didn't throw an error.
How can I make it work within the loops?
In order answer that you have to make a MWE that we can run without the
need to edit a file.
