This seems to broken for extensible math arrows like \xrightarrow as well.
\let\normaloverrightarrow\overrightarrow
\unexpanded\def\overrightarrow{\normaloverrightarrow}
And this fix helps there as well. Could this perhaps be fixed in general for
all extensible arrows?
Have you tried the new current yet? There was a whole bunch of extra
\unexpanded-s in it already.
Best wishes,

Hi Taco, Have you tried the new current yet? There was a whole bunch of extra \unexpanded-s in it already. You're right, thanks! I had built the new context but forgot to install it on this particular machine :-) Sorry for the noise, Matthijs signature.asc Description: Digital signature ___ 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 ___
[NTG-context] \overrightarrow not working in mathmode in Metapost?
Hi,
I've been trying to use the \overrightarrow command within a metapost graphic,
but it doesn't work. Math mode does work, for example \vec works like
expected. Outside of metapost, \overrightarrow works as expected.
To illustrate the problem, I've created the following simple testcase:
\starttext
\startMPcode
draw btex $\vec{foo}$ etex;
draw btex $\overrightarrow{foo}$ etex;
\stopMPcode
\stoptext
This gives the following error output:
! Undefined control sequence.
\dodosmash [#1]-\edef \@@smash
{#1}\futurelet \nexttoken \dododosmash
\relbar -\mathrel {\smash
-}
\mtharrowfill ...inmuskip \thickmuskip \relax #8#5

}{#1\textstyle
{#2}}{#1\sc...
argument ...ex; draw btex $\overrightarrow {foo}
$ etex;
...
l.5 \stopMPcode
It seems the \overrightarrow command uses \@@smash, which isn't defined when
running from metapost?
Is this expected? Is this a bug?
