There's some basic questions I haven't been able to solve (and I remember that I couldn't solve them before but found workarounds, but this time it looks like I'm stuck): 1. Is it possible to have a MPpositiongraphics anchored to more than two positions? Like draw position1 -- position2 .. position3 ? 2. Related to 1.: Is it right that you can't anchor more than 1 MPpositiongraphic to one anchor? If I have: drawsomething position1 -- position2 I can't then say drawsomething position1 .. position3 but must work around by reversing drawsomething position3 .. position1 3. Is it possible to get a line/arrow dashed in two different colors, like red and blue? Sorry if these are silly questions, but I just dabble into metafun! Thanks, and best Thomas
