Re: [NTG-context] Fuzzy lines

dded some more to add fuzzyness. Also they get drawn several times with transparency to get a irregular width and some blur. I’m quite sure this could be added to your macro, but I’m still too inexperienced with Metapost. Hraban __

t;pen" in MetaPost? With transparency? The MF manual says in 1.11, pens are limited, but not how. Or are properties (MF manual 8.10) the way to go? Hraban > Am 11.05.2021 um 13:30 schrieb Mikael Sundqvist : > > Not really what you ask for, perhaps, but this could be interesti

Re: [NTG-context] Fuzzy lines

For simple pens, you may define your own (section 9.7 of MetaPost manual). For complicated strokes, something along these lines could be useful as a starting point (I'm not taking cyclic paths in consideration, btw). I did something similar with duck footprints some weeks ago: %Sorry for the ugly

[NTG-context] Fuzzy lines

Hi MetaFans, is it possible to get lines with Metapost that look like they were drawn with a pencil or brush? Some vector graphics apps (in my case: Affinity Designer) can use such naturally looking brushes for vector graphics (and I don’t know how they do it), but I’d like to automate

Hi, Looks like it is a problem with "StartPage" and "StopPage" in metapost. I get the same error with any MP graphic using those commands. More minimal example (without simpleslides) as per the wiki: https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Cover_Pages colors > 'rgb' c
