My results are the same as Vit's example: The last 9 items are not shaded but have 3 black sides and 1 white one (with \write18 disabled, using a single \jobname-mpgraph.mp) I don't know what is going, but at least I can reproduce the problem. it's related to the fact that there can be 1000 specials only (this /1000 in mp-spec) if you add: \def\MPrgbnumber#1{\expandafter\doMPrgbnumber#1.0\relax} \def\doMPrgbnumber#1.#2#3#4#5#6\relax{#2#3#4#5} \startMPinclusions _special_div_ := 1 ; \stopMPinclusions to the file, and change all 1000's in mp-spec.tex into _special_div_ it works ok; so, the question (for taco is): does mp have the right Really? Hmmm, not for me. I have got the graphics with flat color per picture; every picture in the sequence has lighter and lighter color (starting from black).

Re: [NTG-context] tetex or texlive on linux
Ok, I've tried to reuse ConTeXt with tetex (Debian unstable package) and : 1. pdfTeX version is 1.21 (texlive2005 give 1.3x) 2.
