Hello,

I'd need to use the same color for text and drawing inside a MP code.

The typical situation looks the following way:

----
\definecolor[COL][.7red]
\starttext
\startMPcode
label(btex \color[COL]{Some text} etex, (0, 0));
color col; col := .7red;
draw unitsquare scaled .5cm withcolor col;
\stopMPcode
\stoptext
----

The problem is that the color must be defined twice - first as TeX's
'COL', later as MP's 'col'.

As far as I know, the 'COL' must be defined inside TeX code as colored
text in MP is achieved *only* by calling TeX's "btex
\a-color-family-command[a-color][some-text] etex".

So that's why I think the color must be defined in TeX.

But how to access the TeX's color in MP?

it's all in the metafun manual and also in example code ...

withcolor \MPcolor{COL} ;
