With all three settings (the two runMP... ones and shell_escape) false, the static figure is about 1pt wide. The tufte text has a slight indentation in the right margin to make room for it. With all three settings true, it works fine. With the run* settings true but shell_escape false, the whitespace allocated is a block for a 'dummy' rectangle (with grey background). So it looks like the same behavior as before. With all the settings false, this is the texexec.tex produced: \setupoutput[pdftex] \setupcolors[state=start] \global \loadfontfileoncetrue \readfile {cont-en.tmp}{}{}\starttext \startMPpage beginfig(1); path p; p := fullcircle scaled 2in yscaled 0.5; label(btex hello etex, origin); draw p; endfig; \stopMPpage \stoptext Running 'texexec texexec.tex' produces the right pdf file, so I don't know what's going on. But off-list I'm sending you a tar.gz file that has the two runs, each in a separate directory, and then the recursive diff of them. -Sanjoy `Not all those who wander are lost.' (J.R.R.

Mine might be a similar problem to what you describe about sometxt (although I used btex..etex), because in my example the figure has the wrong width (very narrow). > Hans, can you look at this, please?

Most set shell_escape = f, the tetex and texlive default, and most users won't have set \runMP[TEX]graphicstrue in cont-sys.rme. -Sanjoy `Not all those who wander are lost.' (J.R.R.

Personally, I believe this is a bug. Hans always runs with all three switches true, so he never has any problems, but Mojca and I also regularly have issues like this. The last of those was the incorrect scaling of sometxt() in \runmpgraphicsfalse reported two or three weeks back. Hans, can you look at this, please? Or, if you don't want to support \runmpgraphics false any more, document that somewhere.

[NTG-context] staticMPfigure problem with \runMP[TEX]graphicsfalse
Not sure if the following are new behaviors or are the correct ones but I'm just misunderstanding. The following jjj.tex file doesn't correctly generate and include the static metapost figure unless I set \runMPgraphicstrue and \runMPTEXgraphicstrue in cont-sys.rme and set shell_escape = t. If \runMPgraphicsfalse and \runMPTEXgraphicsfalse but shell_escape = t, then the generated pdf figure is only 1pt wide but is included. If all settings are false, then there's a grey square saying 'dummy' etc. It all works fine if all three settings are true. But I thought that one can leave all three settings false, and texexec will still produce the same pdf just with more runs? This is with context 2006.12.27 (from the Debian context package), pdftex 1.40.0, metapost 0.993, plus mostly texlive 2005. === begin: jjj.tex == \starttext \startstaticMPfigure{fig:ellipse} path p; p := fullcircle scaled 2in yscaled 0.5; label(btex hello etex, origin); draw p; \stopstaticMPfigure \placefigure[right,none]{}{\usestaticMPfigure[fig:ellipse]} \input tufte \stoptext === end: jjj.tex == -Sanjoy `A nation of slaves is always prepared to applaud the clemency of their master who, in the abuse of absolute power, does not proceed to the last extremes of injustice and oppression.'
