Hi! Color is not the only place where TikZ treats "!" in a special way. For example, in TikZ/LaTeX you can say:
\coordinate (A) at (0, 0); \coordinate (B) at (1, 0); \coordinate (C) at ($ (A)!.3!(B) $); % z.C = .3[z.A, z.B] in MetaPost \coordinate (D) at (2, 1); \coordinate (E) at ($ (A)!(B)!(D) $); % projection of (B) to (A)--(D). This code fails in ConTeXt because "!" is made a "normal" character. ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
