Here is my current file, which just gives a white background in the box.
\setupcolors[state=start]
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=color,backgroundcolor=red]
\definecolor[Transparent][r=0,g=1,b=1,t=0,a=normal]
\startreusableMPgraphic{test}
input metaobj;
color t; t:=\MPcolor{Transparent};
setObjectDefaultOption("Box")("fillcolor")(t);
newBox.test(btex Transparent? etex) "filled(true)";
Obj(test).c=origin;
drawObj(test);
\stopreusableMPgraphic
\starttext
\reuseMPgraphic{test}
\stoptext
Experimenting with default degrees of transparency, e.g. t=0.5, I have
noticed that the object is indeed filled using the Transparent color.
The problem seems to be that all objects in metaobj are filled using a
non-transparent white by default. Subsequent filling with a completely
transparent color then of course gives just white.
Well, I just want to see my normal page background through the object.
Can I achieve this?
