So far they all ran smoothly with each of my whole collection of minimals, including the latest (= yesterday's) beta.

The fact remains that the present ConTeXt mkiv is different from that of november and before in a way that is crucial for my project. if you see something \s or \x or whatever show up in some lua error you probably pass a \macroname in a string argument, so if you can figure out where that happens Hans - Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl - ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
Re: [NTG-context] problem with initialize_box in mkIV

Hi there,
i'm having problems with metapost and positional graphics in mkIV.
Here is a small test file that compiles OK with texexec but fails to
compile with context:
% the beginning
\defineoverlay[frames][\positionoverlay{frames}]
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=frames]
\startMPpositiongraphic{frame}
initialize_box(\MPpos{\MPvar{self}});
draw llxy--lrxy--urxy--ulxy--cycle;
\stopMPpositiongraphic
\startpositionoverlay{frames}
\setMPpositiongraphic{one}{frame}
\setMPpositiongraphic{two}{frame}
\stoppositionoverlay
\starttext
This \hpos{one}{word} should be \hpos{two}{framed}.
\stoptext
% the end
My system is a Debian Testing, but I don't believe that it is related to
the distribution, as this example also fails
in the context online compiler @ http://live.contextgarden.net/
The problem seems located around the initialize_box macro.
The whole positioning mechanism has been overhauled last year (columns,
regions, floats, the whole lot should be able to deal with it).
\defineoverlay[frames][\positionoverlay{frames}]
\setupbackgrounds[text][background=frames]
\startMPpositiongraphic{frame}
if unknown context_apos : input mp-apos.mpiv ; fi ;
\MPgetposboxes{\MPvar{self}}{\MPanchorid}
if nofposboxes = 1 :
draw posboxes[1] ;
fi ;
\stopMPpositiongraphic
\startpositionoverlay{frames}
\setMPpositiongraphic{one}{frame}
\setMPpositiongraphic{two}{frame}
\stoppositionoverlay
\starttext
This \hpos{one}{word} should be \hpos{two}{framed}.
\stoptext
At some point the mp modules will be preloaded. Watch the used layer:
text instead of page. At the end of anch-bck.mkiv you can find some more.
