Subject: How do you position/move a MPgraphic?

Hi!
How do you position/move a MPgraphic?
Let us us say that you have the MPgraphics "somebackground" and
"somecolorcircle" (See example below). These MPgraphics are both framed
and used as a background, upon which "sometext" is written on. How can
you freely move or position "somecolorcircle"? ( I want to move
"somecolorcircle" below "sometext") Naturally, I have read Metafun and
tried "shifted (x,y)", \definelayer, \setlayer, register, \setMPlayer,
\getMPlayer...
In general, if you have defined two or more MPgraphics how do you
position them (In my case "somebackground" is fixed while
"somecolorcircle" could be anywhere on "somebackground")?
How would you solve this?
Regards,
Daniel
