Interesting....what is happening is something equivalent to
\externalfigure
[\MPgraphicfile.\the\currentMPgraphic]
[type=mps,object=no,
symbol=yes,reset=yes,
maxwidth=,maxheight=,
frame=off,background=,
width=8cm,
height=1cm]%
and there is no figure. If I remove object=no, the figure is there. I
do not understand why object=no should affect the placement of the
figure.
