seams this code means to put a hidden text with same size behind
metapost shape.
but it does not work properly for me (current version: 2024.04.01 08:59)
and produce empty page but with searchable hidden text.
as mentioned kind = "outline" will be in the next upload so with the
current one you need to use the also posted here for ... endfor variant
also when i edit the code and replace metapost part like this:
\startMPcode
draw lmt_outline [
kind = "outline",
text = "\getbuffer[MyText]",
]
withcolor red
;
\stopMPcode
it produces a selectable hidden text on top of body and red text that
drawn by metapost below of that.
How can this problem be solved?
i attached the codes and pdf results.

we're talking outlines so that is paths which implies no search but you
can do this (Keith and/or Hraban will explain and/or wikify it)
\starttext
\startbuffer[MyText]
\definedfont[name:texgyrepagellabold*default]foo f o o%
\stopbuffer
\startbuffer[MyText]
\framed[align=normal,frame=off]{\input{tufte}}%
\stopbuffer
\setbox\scratchbox\hbox\bgroup
\startMPcode
draw lmt_outline [
kind = "outline",
text = "\getbuffer[MyText]",
]
withshademethod "linear"
withshadedirection down
withshadecolors (red, blue)
;
\stopMPcode
\egroup
\startoverlay
{\scale[height=\htdp\scratchbox,width=\wd\scratchbox]{\effect[hidden]{\getbuffer[MyText]}}}
{\box\scratchbox}
\stopoverlay
\stoptext
