Hello,
I have
\defineoverlay[Wave][\useMPgraphic{Wave}]
\startuseMPgraphic{Wave} ... \stopuseMPgraphic
\setupbackgrounds[footer][text][background={Wave}]
The problem is that the graphics is not re-computed on every page, although I pretty convinced it should.
On the opposite, when I set \setupbackgrounds[text][text][background={Wave}] it works perfectly well. (The difference is in [footer] vs. [text].)
An ugly workaround is to call \setupbackgrounds on every page, but it's not nice at all. What went wrong?
as already mentioned (by taco): \setupbackgrounds[state=repeat]
only page and text area backgrounds are recalculated each page (otherwise the speed penalty is too big]
an option is to do something:
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=PageBackground]
\defineoverlay[PageBackground][\reuseMPgraphic{PageBackground}]\startreusableMPgraphic{PageBackground}
StartPage ;
fill Field[Text][Footer] withcolor red ;
StopPage ;
\stopreusableMPgraphic(see metafun manual for details on the page stuff)
