hi, Hans---
putting boxrow.mp in the lmtx tree and running "mtxrun --generate" worked, so
it appears that my old path settings in the environment file isn't working any
more. and i'd rather not mangle the distribution tree as that's
out-of-sight/out-of-mind and likely to get replaced sometime after i've
forgotten that i mangled it....
- does that mean that the usepath/usesubpath feature or environment scoping
is now different?
=> if so, where do i find the new rules/syntax so i can regenerate my path
code/environment file?
=> is there a hook to generate/append the file paths dynamically using a
lua script in the top-level setup file (seems easier than the manual csh
script=>environment file that i'm using now....)
- is it possible to configure lmtx to add my local tree to the search path? i
seem to recall it was possible when i was fiddling with kpse many many years
ago.
=> if so, where do i find the info to set that up in my *shrc files?
thanks,

Hi---
I have a number of included figures that work in 20200920 but not in the
current 20210124 version. There's a project structure that sets everything up
but after that they are input as a figure:
\startplacefigure[title={NS Hierarchy},
reference={f:ns-hierarchy}]
\input ns_hierarchy
\stopplacefigure
and generate the error:

Continue, and I'll return the second argument (see above) as the result of
theoperation.

I can put together and share a runnable MWE set of files if this information is
not complete enough to identify the problem.
Here is the MWE that I used for the input figure file that demonstrates the
problem.
\defineMPinstance[ns_hier]
[
format=metafun,
extensions=yes,
initializations=yes,
method=double,
]
\startMPinclusions{ns_hier}
input boxrow
\stopMPinclusions
\startMPdefinitions{ns_hier}
% nothing to see here....
\stopMPdefinitions
\startMPcode{ns_hier}
make_BoxRow
[
name = "Parent",
label = "Parent Root Namespace",
];
\stopMPcode
What if you put it in your tree? Someplace under
texmf-local/metapost/...
(run mtxrun --generate afterdpimng that)
