 Untested, but how about

 \placefigure

   {none}
   {\placeMPgraphic}


Yes, I tried that; with no arguments to \loadcurrentMPgraphic the
thesis page is placed on the bottom of the A4 and not quite in the
middle (?). with width=\textwidth or \makeupwidth the result is the
same.

 how to do this.


Yes, I had intended to, and thought I did, but apparently I am more
trigger happy than I allow for ...

Thank you for your help, Johan

  MPpage creates a page with dimensions equal to the bounding box of the
  graphic. If you want to center a MP figure on your title page, use
  \startMPgraphic

This works if I change \paperwidth and \paperheight to
\printpaperwidth and \printpaperheight and change the dimensions
slightly.

[NTG-context] \setuppapersize and \startMPpage

2006-05-09 Thread Johan Sandblom
Dear expertise,

I have the following:

\definepapersize[thesis][width=169mm, height=239mm]
\setuppapersize[thesis][A4]
\setuplayout
 [location=middle, marking=on]
\setuppagenumbering
 [alternative=doublesided, location=marginedge, state=stop]

\starttext

% Title page
\startMPpage
% Some metafun
\stopMPpage

% Some text
\stoptext

The resulting pdf has a smaller first page (thesis size) while the
rest are A4 with the thesis pages place centrally. I would like to see
the title page placed on an A4 sheet as well. What am I doing wrong?

Johan
