Re: [NTG-context] Metafun Label and externalfigure Problem
Hi, Not having blblogo.pdf, I used cow.pdf for the tests below. I use luatex 0.66.0 (rev 4090) hand-built on linux32, and Context 2011.02.25 22:03 MKIV (received privately from Hans) With that configuration, all three tests function exactly as they should, so it is almost certainly not luatex that is causing trouble. It could be a bug in one of the previous beta's, or a local/minimals misconfiguration.

Dear Lutz, After replacing "blblogo.pdf" with a figure file in my system and tested it. Otherwise, it shows a gray rectangle.

[NTG-context] metafun- how to pass array as an argument

However, if I can pass the array "3,5,0,2,1,7" as an argument for def draw_balls (expr n) and call draw_balls (3,5,0,2,1,7), then it can be used for different number of balls and number of boxes. Is there a way to do that or any suggestions? Thank you for reading.

Hi,
I wanted to try (using ConTeXt minimals MkIV) the example on page 228

I haven't look at the metapost manual ... but
The code is given as:
\resetMPdrawing
\startMPdrawing
picture pic[] ;
numeric wid[], len[], pos[], n ;
wid[0] := len[0] := pos[0] := n := 0 ;
\stopMPdrawing
\def\whatever#1%

pic[n] := textext("\bfd\setstrut\strut#1") ;
pic[n] := pic[n] shifted - llcorner pic[n] ;
\stopMPdrawing}
\handletokens MetaPost is Fun!\with\whatever
But is won't run. The following message is generated:
The actual error message said
! Undefined control sequence.
\@@toks ->\MPtoks
So add
\newtoks\MPtoks
After which you get
! Undefined control sequence.
\whatever ...endtoks #1\to \MPtoks \setbox \MPbox
so add
\newbox\MPbox
After that the file compiles but you get an empty image. There are two
things missing in the code. First you don't tell actually draw the
metapost drawing. for that, add
\MPdrawingdonetrue \getMPdrawing \resetMPdrawing
Still an empty page. Again the pic[n] is calculated but never drawn.
So add
draw p[n] shifted (n*1cm,0) ;
(or perhaps along a more sophisticated path),
and now you have a working example:
\newtoks\MPtoks
\newbox\MPbox
\resetMPdrawing
\startMPdrawing
picture p[] ;
numeric wid[], len[], pos[], n ;
wid[0] := len[0] := pos[0] := n := 0 ;
\stopMPdrawing
\def\whatever#1%
{\appendtoks#1\to\MPtoks
\setbox\MPbox=\hbox{\bfd\the\MPtoks}%
\startMPdrawing
n := n + 1 ; len[n] := \the\wd\MPbox ;
p[n] := textext("\bfd\setstrut\strut#1") ;
p[n] := p[n] shifted - llcorner p[n] ;
draw p[n] shifted (n*1cm,0) ;
\stopMPdrawing}
\starttext
\handletokens MetaPost is Fun!\with\whatever
\MPdrawingdonetrue \getMPdrawing \resetMPdrawing
\stoptext
You could also have just used the macros from meta-txt:
\useMPlibrary[txt]
\startMPdefinitions
newpath RotPath ;
RotPath = fullcircle scaled 3cm ;
\stopMPdefinitions
\starttext
\followtokens{Metapost is fun \quad}

Hi,
Okay, that makes things more clear, but couldn't find this in the
manual! Maybe it is very obvious to someone more familiar with METAPOST.
Well, I also tried the nice macro example on page 232 of the MetaFun
manual by Hans, and got of course the same problems. But after I added the
\newtoks\MPtoks
\newbox\MPbox
definitions to the file, it worked!
Also the Inkscape alternative is very useful, thanks for helping me out!
Regards,
Gerard

Hi,

I haven't look at the metapost manual ... but
The code is given as:
\resetMPdrawing
\startMPdrawing
picture pic[] ;
numeric wid[], len[], pos[], n ;
wid[0] := len[0] := pos[0] := n := 0 ;
\stopMPdrawing
\def\whatever#1%

\stopMPdrawing
\startMPdrawing[-]
pic[n] := textext("\bfd\setstrut\strut#1") ;
pic[n] := pic[n] shifted - llcorner pic[n] ;
\stopMPdrawing}
\handletokens MetaPost is Fun!\with\whatever
But is won't run. The following message is generated:
The actual error message said
! Undefined control sequence.
\@@toks ->\MPtoks
So add
\newtoks\MPtoks
After which you get
! Undefined control sequence.
\whatever ...endtoks #1\to \MPtoks \setbox \MPbox
so add
\newbox\MPbox
After that the file compiles but you get an empty image. There are two
things missing in the code. First you don't tell actually draw the
metapost drawing. for that, add
\MPdrawingdonetrue \getMPdrawing \resetMPdrawing
Still an empty page. Again the pic[n] is calculated but never drawn. So
add
draw p[n] shifted (n*1cm,0) ;
(or perhaps along a more sophisticated path),
and now you have a working example:
\newtoks\MPtoks
\newbox\MPbox
\resetMPdrawing
\startMPdrawing
picture p[] ;
numeric wid[], len[], pos[], n ;
wid[0] := len[0] := pos[0] := n := 0 ;
\stopMPdrawing
\def\whatever#1%
{\appendtoks#1\to\MPtoks
\setbox\MPbox=\hbox{\bfd\the\MPtoks}%
\startMPdrawing
n := n + 1 ; len[n] := \the\wd\MPbox ;
p[n] := textext("\bfd\setstrut\strut#1") ;
p[n] := p[n] shifted - llcorner p[n] ;
draw p[n] shifted (n*1cm,0) ;
\stopMPdrawing}
\starttext
\handletokens MetaPost is Fun!\with\whatever
\MPdrawingdonetrue \getMPdrawing \resetMPdrawing
\stoptext
You could also have just used the macros from meta-txt:
\useMPlibrary[txt]
\startMPdefinitions
newpath RotPath ;
RotPath = fullcircle scaled 3cm ;
\stopMPdefinitions
\starttext
\followtokens{Metapost is fun \quad}
\stoptext
@Hans: Perhaps we can have a more ConTeXtist interface to this macro:
\definetextonepath

Hi Gerard,
how about an alternative way to deal with this?
1. draw the text with Inkscape (put text on a path);
I think there is even a tutorial for this.
2. select the graphic and save it as *.eps
3. use pstoedit to convert it into *.mp
pstoedit -v -ssp -f "mpost:" foo.eps foo.mp
4. edit/scale the metapost graphic as you like
Best wishes, Peter

I'm in need of help to get the example as described in the MetaFun
manual running, because I want to use text around a path!
So, I started reading the chapter about 'Typesetting in METAPOST' and
wanted to try the examples as given in that chapter, but without succes!
The problem seem to be the MPtoks macro. According to the text in this
chapter this low level macro (and MPbox and appendtoks) are already
defined, but are they really?
The version of context minimals I use at the moment is:

I agree. That chapter is confusing if you do not know already how the mechanism
works.
I tried to create the first example of the

but without the graphical elements. Not using
\startbuffer--\stopbuffer makes no difference.
You are simply setting the positions. You also need to tell ConTeXt to do
something with the positions.
1. First define a position graphic that does something with the anchors
that it is passed.
\startMPpositiongraphic{mypos:arrow}
pair c[] ;
initialize_box(\MPpos{\MPvar{self}});
c[1] := cxy ;
initialize_box(\MPpos{\MPvar{to}});
c[2] := cxy ;
drawarrow c[1] -- c[2] withpen pencircle scaled 2bp ;
\stopMPpositiongraphic
cxy is the center of the box. See the defn of initialize_box in mp-core.mp
for other values. I wish these were better documented.
2. Then define a position overlay that specifies the relation between the
anchors.
\startpositionoverlay{arrow}
\setMPpositiongraphic{X-1}{mypos:arrow}{to=X-2}
\setMPpositiongraphic{X-2}{mypos:arrow}{to=X-3}
\stoppositionoverlay
3. Define an overlay that is mapped to MP position overlay.
\defineoverlay[arrow][\positionoverlay{arrow}]
4. Hook the overlay as a page background
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=arrow]
5. Then everything will work.
\starttext
\section {Anchors and layers}
In a previous section we saw that some \hpos{X-1} {words} were
\hpos{X-2}{circled} and connected by an \hpos{X-3} {arrow}.
As with most things in \CONTEXT, marking these words is separated
from declaring what to do with those words. This paragraph is keyed
in as:

Hi, At the context conference Taco presented a new initiative with respect to manuals. For those who cannot (or don't want to) print and bind at home we offer a printing on demand service. This week we send out the first copies of the (new) metafun manual: http://www.boekplan.nl/node/9 More will follow. We hope that this will (partially) answer the need for manuals. We still have to find out which manuals (also new ones) should become available as it takes a bit of effort to keep this flow running and to turn manuals in some book-like form, so best keep an eye on the site if you're interested.

Here's what you get when you ask a question without testing first! I'm very
embarrassed to say that this question is bovine excrements. The metafun macro
PageNumber does indeed refer to \userpagenumber, so this part is answered.
However, there's still something I would like to know. Consider the following
example:
\startuseMPgraphic{back}
StartPage ;
z[1] = center Page ;
label.bot(textext("\switchtobodyfont[30pt]\startcolor[orange]" &
decimal PageNumber & "\stopcolor\ -- \startcolor[darkblue]" & decimal
NOfPages & "\stopcolor"), z[1]) ;
StopPage ;
\stopuseMPgraphic
\defineoverlay
[pageback]
[\useMPgraphic{back}]
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=pageback]
\setupuserpagenumber[state=start]
\starttext
\dorecurse{8}{\userpagenumber \input knuth\page}
\resetuserpagenumber
\dorecurse{8}{\userpagenumber \input knuth\page}
\stoptext
The PageNumber does the right thing: goes from 1 to 8, then is reset to 1
again. But NOfPages results in "16," the total number. Is there any way I can
have a metafun macro "the highest page number before \userpagenumber was reset"?
Thanks, and best
Thomas

You can set the values with
\setvariables
[document]
[author=...,
title=...,
logo=...]
and access them with
\getvariable{document}{author}
You can also test for a content of the variable:
\doifvariable{document}{logo}{\externalfigure[\getvariable{document}{logo}]}

After installing Texlive 2009, and I put the directory of texlive open for writing as usr, so chmod 777 /usr/local/texlive, I followed all kind of suggestions on the page of ConTeXt-garden, such as the generation of luatools and go so on. I also put your suggestion in the texmf.conf file of version 2009, and I put the paths to the new texlive version into the .profile file. It took very long time before the file was "compiled" completely, much longer as before, with texlive version 2007. But I got my "decorations" back. I have only the idea that is worked with MKII and not with MKIV, I have no idea if this is in the line of the development of ConTeXt? Has MKIV to be used or MKII? If I do as user which pdflatex and so on I get answers back with /usr/local/texlive/2009.. , so I have the idea that texlive 2009 is used. The following command: texexec --version gives: /usr/local/texlive/2009/texmf-dist/scripts/context/ruby/base/system.rb:16: warning: Insecure world writable dir /usr/local/texlive/2009/bin/i386-linux in PATH, mode 040777 TeXExec | version 6.2.1 - 1997-2009 - PRAGMA ADE/POD I don't like that "insecure world writable", but oke for the moment being. There is also used, much space of the hard-disk in the home directory. I think that I will not try to do this at my ASUS eee PC, with the 16Gb SDD!

[NTG-context] change numeral to string in Metafun
Dear all,
I'd like to draw boxes with a label in a certain rule.
I define drawbox macro for it.
It receives 3 numbers, (the height of box, x position, y position).
I'd like to label the height of the box in the middle of the box.
I tired
label( h ,(3s*u+u, t*u + h*u/2)); %h is a received numeral.
But it is not working. If I change h to "letter" in label command, it is
working.
So, I'd like to know how to put received numeral(the height of the box) as a
label.
Or, how to change the value of a variable to a string.
Here is a working sample code.
\startuseMPgraphic{sample}
numeric u;
u := 0.5cm;
def drawbox (expr h, s, t) =
%numeric h,s,t;
draw unitsquare xyscaled (1cm, h*u) shifted (3*s*u, t*u);
label("1",(3s*u+u, t*u + h*u/2));
enddef;
drawbox (3, 0, 0);
drawbox (6, 0, 3);
drawbox (2, 1, 0);
drawbox (1, 1, 2);
drawbox (3, 2, 0)
drawbox (4, 2, 3)
\stopuseMPgraphic
\starttext
\placefigure[here][]{sample}
{\useMPgraphic{sample}}
\stoptext
Thank you.

[NTG-context] metafun problem
Dear ConTeXtuals,
the following MP-inclusion produces fatal error (! TeX capacity
exceeded, sorry [parameter stack size=6000].):
starttext
\startMPcode
label(btex $\underbrace{a}_{b}$ etex,(0,0));
\stopMPcode
\stoptext
I use mkii, but the code should work.
Has anyone an explanation?
With many thanks for any hint
Albrecht

[NTG-context] Metafun in MacTeX 209 distribution
Hello people,
I installed Mac TeX -2009 Distribution on a new iMAC.
when I try to run texexec on a Context file that includes a metapost program,
I receive no picture that is defined in metapost part.
(btw in my linux installation it works)
What I can find in log file is:
...
runsystem(texmfstart texexec --batch --output=dvips --mpformat=metafun --mptex
--nomp --once obrazek-mpgraph)...disabled.
...
Running this sequence manually and reruning the 1st texexec I receive what I
expect.
Is it a feature of Mac distribution or there is a mismatch in some
file/directory permissions? (mptopfd, ...)
Are there another installation steps needed after fresh MacTeX installation?
the test file is:
\startuseMPgraphic{def}
...
\stopuseMPgraphic
\startuseMPgraphic{obr30}
\includeMPgraphic{def}
...
\stopuseMPgraphic
\starttext
test
\placefigure[here][fig1]{yyy} {\useMPgraphic{obr30}}
end of test
\stoptext

unfortunately on this point there is no documention I can find.
Thanks for your fast help Hans
no, for the moment just one cache path (maybe in the future more but it
is sort of tricky as quite some version testing has to be done then so
it's not a good idea to implement that while mkiv is in flux

Hi Mojca,
wrong colors (or what is the problem here)?

doesn't work in MKIV at all. On Hans' machine it generates weird
colors (though not that much wrong). I can send you an example, but I
guess that it behaves the same way with any png image.
But I would not worry too much. My installation is always broken when
it works for everyone else :) :) :)
I guess that I give up.
It started working now for no particular reason (no change in files,
no change in my installation).
And the colors are fine as well.
My only explanation is that I had a broken png file at some moment and
even if I tried to proccess it again, luatex still thought that png
was broken (maybe luatex caches images somewhere?).
My only explanation: Hans has direct access to your harddisk and changes
things silently in the background :D

I guess that I give up.
It started working now for no particular reason (no change in files,
no change in my installation).
And the colors are fine as well.
My only explanation is that I had a broken png file at some moment and
even if I tried to proccess it again, luatex still thought that png
was broken (maybe luatex caches images somewhere?).

ah, so now er're talking of mp code
i bet it works, but that you don't see the small image ...
\startMPcode
externalfigure("filename.png") scaled 10cm ;
\stopMPcode
(actually in mkiv i could default to the natural size)

On my machine

\stopMPcode
doesn't work in MKIV at all. On Hans' machine it generates weird

But I would not worry too much. My installation is always broken when

If it works for you then it probably works on at least a few more machines, or will start working with the next major release at least. Thanks a lot for looking into it. (I used the "thought-it-was-working" installation this time, not with the old and broken one.) color viewing is somewhat different, maybe because of some resource initialization I remember similar problem a while ago due to some transparency being used on the same page (but at that time you said it was a bug in adobe reader).
