[NTG-context] [metapost] troubles with labels
Dear all, with this minimalist content of metapost file: ``` beginfig(1); dotlabel.ulft(A, origin); endfig; end. ``` And this conteXt file: ``` \starttext \startMPrun input mymp.mp; \stopMPrun \externalfigure[mprun.21][width=5cm] \stoptext ``` The resulting pdf file contains no figure. But this conteXt file works: ``` \starttext \startMPcode dotlabel.ulft(A, origin); \stopMPcode \stoptext ``` As with any metapostfile which does not contain labels. But as soon as there is label, their is no figure. Two last things: if I compile the metapost file with standalone metapost, I can include the resulting file as an external figure. But if I put a label A', while with displaying figure with a viewer it is ok, when included in a conteXt file, I only obtain A label. Also, if I try to change the font in the metapost file (for example defaultfont:=pplr8r;) it does not work in conteXt. Do you have an explanation or workaround?

[NTG-context] boxedcolumns weirdness
I am typesetting a series of items with boxedcolumns enclose in a framedtext: \startframedtext[width=\makeupwidth,offset=0pt,frame=off,align=tolerant] \startboxedcolumns[n=2,separator=rule] Occasionally it happens that material at the end of the first column is not typeset. It occurs haphazardly in a large (more than 300) series of items. Depending on the length of the first columns material (I introduced extra space with \crlf, \blank, \blank[dimension]) other items exhibit the effect. Because of this haphazard character, the large data set and the fact that I could not isolate it in a few items, I regrettably do not have a minimal example. Thus I can only signal it here, in case others encounter it too. Or in case the person maintaining this code happens to spot the problem from the observation alone.
