Re: [NTG-context] About the macro path intersectionpoint path with Metapost

Hi,

I guess your problem is to find the two points of intersection between p
and r ? If so, the problem is that intersectionpoint does return the same
intersection when there is several, as it is the case here. So a quick
solution that you can do is to find intersections for the two part. A
drawing is simple than words ! here is the code to illustrate:

Happy drawing !

\setupcolors[state=start]
\starttext
\startMPpage
  path p, q, r, b , u;
  p:= fullcircle scaled 6cm ;
  q:= fullcircle scaled 4cm shifted (2.5cm,2cm) ;
  r:= fullcircle scaled 4cm shifted (-2.5cm,2cm);
  b:= fullcircle scaled 2cm shifted (0,-3cm);
  pair A, B ;
  path rprime ;
  % Rprime is a a part of r (drawn in black to see it):
  rprime := r cutbefore point .5 along r;
  A:= p intersectionpoint r ;
  B:= p intersectionpoint rprime ;
  draw A withpen pencircle scaled .1in ;
  draw B withpen pencircle scaled .1in ;

  u:= A--B--cycle ;
  draw p withcolor green;
  draw q withcolor blue;
  draw rprime  withpen pencircle scaled .05in withcolor black;
  draw r withcolor red;
  draw b withcolor magenta;
  draw u numberstriped (.25,15,5) withcolor magenta ;

Hi,

Re: [NTG-context] About the macro path intersectionpoint path with Metapost

Dear Fabrice,

Metapost is great for drawiang figures  but it is not easy for me  to use it.

>  pair A, B ;
>  A:= p intersectionpoint r ;
>  B:= p intersectionpoint r ;
>  path u ;
>  u:= A--B--cycle ;

 A and B are the same point. One of “r” should be changed to “q” or “b”.
Then you can have a line.
I also made similar errors many times too.

Btw, is there any reason to add “—cycle”?

Enjoy the drawing.

Best regards,

Dalyoung
