Dear Otared,
I am sorry that the sample code is not fully loaded.
Although Hans said that we don’t need ‘makempy’, I copied the whole code again

\setuphead[section][style={\effect[outer]}] is working well.
For korean, use \setupbodyfont[unfonts] as Hans said.

So with this method, I can cut out some fillings of letters in a logo,
but for this example it draws a small line through the letter:
%%%
\starttext
\framed[background=color,backgroundcolor=red,height=fit,width=fit]{
\startMPcode
path db[],df[],dc[];
drawoptions (withcolor (0.00,0.329412,0.56

The only letter ("g") I have left in the logo has two spaces that I want to cut
out.
I can't make a single path out of it so that it doesn't go through the entire
letter, so what to do in this case?
Here's the example:

Can't you construct four outlines instead of three
Just as a thought ... what you currently do with metapost at the
moment is a bit of cheating to overcome lack of a feature in metapost
- there is still an infinitely thin line between segments and a dumb
renderer might display artifacts.

Thanks Peter! You are right it is easier to draw both the wave and the
line in Metapost. And the dx=-\cutspace is just what I needed for left
pages!
I striped the frames out of the code and placed just the graphics in
the layer with a reuseMPgraphic. Also, I pulled out the definition of
the wave

Thanks for your tips Wolfgang! I switched to a solution as on the
wiki, using overlays and frames in place of layers. After setting the
boudingboxes right it works! I have to increase the \objectoffset
though, because otherwise the graphic is chopped of:
\setuppapersize[A5][A5]
\setuppagenumbering
Hi
I am using context to run a metapost graph. I am however unable to
insert a label with \frac, since this is not pure Tex but Latex. This
seems to be a known problem for metapost:
-Seems for metapost only, one should add %&latex
(http://ryanmlayer.wordpress.com/tag/metapost/).
-I saw
Hallo.
I've got a problem with metapost -> pdf translation. Since mptopdf is still
broken in the last ConTeXt beta in the minimal distribution, I use "mtxrun
--script metapost --split". It works well, only it ignores font setting. My
code is like this:
verbatimtex
\definety
I used to put an invisible frame around figures in MetaPost by setting a pen
scaled at 0pt. That left no trace, but defined the area.
However I (now) see a thin line drawn by code:
pickup pencircle scaled 0pt;
draw origin--(w,h);
Did I always mis this or has something

Hello,
I need a simple graphic that shows some boxes (frames) with text in it and has
some arrows pointing to and from these boxes. (examples 267 and 268 on this
page [1])
I was hoping to do this in MetaPost.

Dear devs,
There seems to be a bug in the MetaPost integration of ConTeXt. The MWE
below should produce three different labels “dummy foo bar” but instead
produces “bar bar bar”. The same example works correctly in plain
MetaPost. Originally reported
