Hans, Thank you for the snippets. These are super helpful (I am assuming commands like `withpatternscale` are MetaFun extensions and Wow!).
I have added them to a new Wiki Page - https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Fill_Patterns and linked it the main MetaFun wiki page - https://wiki.contextgarden.net/MetaFun_-_MetaPost_in_ConTeXt Thanks again! best regards, Ramkumar On Sat, Aug 28, 2021 at 7:02 PM Hans Hagen <j.ha...@xs4all.nl> wrote: > On 8/28/2021 11:33 AM, Ramkumar KB via ntg-context wrote: > > Hello List, > > > > I have a use case to apply a particular pattern to a closed shape.
