Hi Tom,

you simply get what you draw (the OverlayBox is always a square). See page 50 in the MetaFun manual for a solution...

Best wishes, Peter

Shadows on round-corner textboxes are producing square-corner shaded boxes with square-corner shadows. The following code illustrates the problem and should run asis.

 

\def\Demos{

 

\startuniqueMPgraphic{shadow}

fill OverlayBox shifted (4pt,-4pt) withcolor .8white ;

fill OverlayBox withcolor .8white ;

draw OverlayBox withcolor black ;

setbounds currentpicture to OverlayBox ;
