Edit mp-spec.mp and change the line draw p withcolor ... with image(draw p withcolor ...) The line is in the body of the doexternalfigure macro. Then, 'draw externalfigure ...' should work in mkii, too. Note: knowledge of ConTeXt internals - which I don't have - is needed to be sure that the patch doesn't break anything. Hence, the above is to be considered as a wild guess of mine.

(I don't care which syntax is used, but I would be grateful if the same syntax worked in both mkii and mkiv.) Since you seem to be a metapost expert: do you have any idea what exactly would have to be fixed in ConTeXt core code? If ConTeXt won't be fixed for whatever reason, I will write a wrapper function using your code, but I would like to avoid that. Hans?

[NTG-context] "externalfigure" vs. "draw externalfigure" in metafun
Dear Hans, I have problems with externalfigure inside metapost. In MKII, only externalfigure "something.png"; works, while in MKIV only draw externalfigure "something.png"; is accepted. Is there any chance to accept one of the syntaxes in both flavours? Thank you, Mojca Minimal example: \starttext \startMPpage % only good for MKII externalfigure "abc.png" xyscaled (5cm,8cm); % only good for MKIV % draw externalfigure "abc.png" xyscaled (5cm,8cm); \stopMPpage \stoptext ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
