But alas, if *you* don't know, it's probably hopeless. the problem is in the fact that in a shading one has to define a vector and i have to find out how to define a transparent vector (color 1 - color 2) Hans - Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl - ___ ntg-context mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

Furthermore, the shading variants for linear_shade do not correspond with those listed in the metafun manual, page 180. Variant 2 is missing and behaves like variant 3 should. Not so exactly. The today reality is a bit richer than that in the Metafun manual.
