missing metafun graphics in mkii

missing metafun graphics in mkii

[Mojca Miklavec]

Hello,

Does anyone else experience problems using metafun graphics in mkii?
Did I miss some runwhatevertrue switch somewhere? Are the stubs in
minimals incompatible in some way? At least live.contextgarden.net
seems to suffer as well.

Minimal example:

\startMPcode
draw fullcircle scaled 3cm;
\stopMPcode

If I run the code with some older ConTeXt then the code starts working
again with a recent ConTeXt, but recent ConTeXt doesn't generate the
   jobname-mpgraph.1
file at all. Once compiling the document with an older version, the
file is generated and it starts working again. But this behaviour
breaks my module :(

Thanks,
    Mojca

Well, I don't quite sure if it's the same problem with you guys
but there's a weird thing that after I updated to the current
beta release, I have to run "texmfstart texexec" twice to get
the metapost figures.

there has been an issue with texexec and mp cleanup ... do you use the 
latest texexec?

Mea culpa ...
    Fatal mem file error; metafun.mem was written by an older version
That should have costed me two beers at least.

Since texexec doesn't intercept this error message gets hidden too well.

But then ... the garden needs to be fixed as well and it's not the same problem.

normally texexec --make would show at least something, as it remakes the 
metafun format

metafun/graph \times error (mkiv)

[Alan BRASLAU]

Metapost/graph currently does not handle scientific notation correctly in 
mkiv:

-> 1.5imes106

(and does not work at all in mkii)

Alan

%% minimal example:

\usemodule[graph]

\starttext

\startMPcode
draw begingraph(12cm,12cm) ;
	setcoords(linear,linear) ;
	setrange(0,0,365,"2000000") ;
	endgraph ;
\stopMPcode

\stoptext

patch this in m-graph.mkiv: \ -> \\

         return "\\times10^{"..(s:gsub("%+*0*","")).."}"
