Hello all,
I try to get a label in metafun that is broken into two lines:
some
text
the following \break is silently ignored. Putting the textext inside
a vbox did not help.
==================================================
% interface=en output=pdf
\starttext
\startMPcode
label (textext("some\break text"),origin);
\stopMPcode
\stoptext
==================================================
How do I get the some text in two lines?
Patrick

\rbox{some\\ text} works here

not here ... May I have your computer?
\starttext
\startMPcode
label (textext("\rbox{some\\ text}"),origin);
\stopMPcode
\stoptext
Do you have any ideas?
! Incomplete \iffalse; all text was ignored after line 7.
