This apparently is tried to get run through METAPOST separately and that 
clearly doesn’t work, because ApplicationComponentLogo isn’t defined. This is 
the result of the following setup:

\starttext
\startMPdefinitions (or inclusions, no difference)
% ApplicationComponentLogo is defined here with a vardef
\stopMPdefinitions
\ctxlua{foo(“filename”)}% produces a series of
%context.startMPpage { instance = 
"doublefun” }
%several of:
%   context( METAPOST statements in a 
string)
%context.stopMPpage()
\stoptext

How do I get my MPdefinitions available in those METAPOST runs?


Since you are using \startMPpage[instace=doublefun], you need to do the 
definitions for doublefun instance: so use


\startMPdefinitions{doublefun}
...
\stopMPdefinitions

That is not quite clear to me (ambiguous because of a lack of experience).

Does ‘once’ mean, valid in just one page or valid in all following pages?

Sure, put the vardef inside \startMPinclusions:


or \startMPdefinitions ... \stopMPdefinitions (don't remember what is 
the difference between inclusions and definitions, now).

definitions: once
inclusions : every time

Thank you. And if I want these in a separate file, what is the correct way to 
include them?

Sure, put the vardef inside \startMPinclusions:

\startMPinclusions
vardef MyShape(expr w, h) =
   ...
enddef ;
\stopMPinclusions
\startMPpage
picture s ; s := MyShape(4cm, 2cm);

[NTG-context] Can I share METAPOST vardefs over multiple pages?

2020-03-13 Thread Gerben Wierda
Suppose I have this code:

\startMPpage

vardef MyShape(expr w, h) =
   save pth; path pth ;
   save pic; picture pic;
   pth = fullsquare xysized (w, h);
   pic := image (
   draw pth;
   % all kind of stuff here
   );
   setbounds pic to pth;
   pic
enddef ;

picture s ; s := MyShape(4cm, 2cm);

draw s;

drawdot center leftboundary  s withpen pencircle scaled 2 withcolor green;
drawdot center rightboundary s withpen pencircle scaled 2 withcolor blue;
drawdot point .25 along topboundary s withpen pencircle scaled 2 withcolor

drawdot .25[llcorner s, lrcorner s] withpen pencircle scaled 2 withcolor

\stopMPpage

Can I reuse that varied across follow-up MPPages?
