[NTG-context] metafun problem
Dear ConTeXtuals,
the following MP-inclusion produces fatal error (! TeX capacity
exceeded, sorry [parameter stack size=6000].):
starttext
\startMPcode
label(btex $\underbrace{a}_{b}$ etex,(0,0));
\stopMPcode
\stoptext
I use mkii, but the code should work.
Has anyone an explanation?
With many thanks for any hint
Albrecht

[NTG-context] Custom metaobj object in context
Hi,
I just tried to build my own object in metaobj but for some reason I
cannot figure out it does not work. I tried the example from the metaobj
manual in a tex document (it works in a metapost file):
\startuseMPgraphic{objecttest}
vardef newsegm...@#=
assignObj(@#,Segment);
ObjPoint a,b;
ObjCode @#...@#a=(1cm,2cm);
enddef;
\stopuseMPgraphic
When processing this with context (MkIV) I get
! Illegal parameter number in definition of \...@mpg@objecttest.
to be read again
=
argument vardef newsegm...@##=
assignObj(@##,Segment); ObjPoint
a,b; Ob...
\dostartuseMPgraphic ...leuseMPgraphic {#1}{#2}{#3
}}
l.7 \stopuseMPgraphic
My first wild guess is that it has something to do with the evil
@-symbol. But even if this is the case I don't know what to do to fix
this. Any help appreciated and thank you very much in advance.
Stefan.

no, more with # being special to tex's parser
\string# or \# will probably do

[NTG-context] change numeral to string in Metafun
Dear all,
I'd like to draw boxes with a label in a certain rule.
I define drawbox macro for it.
It receives 3 numbers, (the height of box, x position, y position).
I'd like to label the height of the box in the middle of the box.
I tired
label( h ,(3s*u+u, t*u + h*u/2)); %h is a received numeral.
But it is not working. If I change h to letter in label command, it is
working.
So, I'd like to know how to put received numeral(the height of the box) as a
label.
Or, how to change the value of a variable to a string.
Here is a working sample code.
\startuseMPgraphic{sample}
numeric u;
u := 0.5cm;
def drawbox (expr h, s, t) =
%numeric h,s,t;
draw unitsquare xyscaled (1cm, h*u) shifted (3*s*u, t*u);
label(1,(3s*u+u, t*u + h*u/2));
enddef;
drawbox (3, 0, 0);
drawbox (6, 0, 3);
drawbox (2, 1, 0);
drawbox (1, 1, 2);
drawbox (3, 2, 0)
drawbox (4, 2, 3)
\stopuseMPgraphic
\starttext
\placefigure[here][]{sample}
{\useMPgraphic{sample}}
\stoptext
Thank you.
Dalyoung
