Re: [NTG-context] TeX capacity exceeded with metafun
Thanks Hans, I made some tweaking with values (quasi-randomly...). Console is extremely slow in processing the file including the MPGraphic (I thought many times it hanged, then letting it run without looking I discovered some minutes after that it was still working). Looking at the the terminal (from TeXShop), it seemed that the process was not finished, so I killed it, but the pdf is complete. In any case now I have my drawing of 10,000 squares.

Re: [NTG-context] TeX capacity exceeded with metafun
I edited the file doubling the 3 values But in context.cnf I have: main_memory.context = 200 main_memory.mpost= 300 main_memory.metafun = 300 >> did you regenerate the formats? >> >> Then I ran: texexec --make (right?)

Thanks Hans So: 1. If I understand, I have to edit context.cnf, right? 2. It may work, but non necessarily. It is thus possible that I cannot solve definitively the problem. How do I choose a clever number to set? 3. Ehm... No, I haven't regenerated the format. How can I do it?

Re: [NTG-context] TeX capacity exceeded with metafun
Now, as far as I understand it seems that I have to edit texmf.cnf. In any case, I do not know in which way...
