i Henri, Thank you for your answer. The idea is to make the graph as an attachment. I converted to Metapost but the road is still long! The code is from percusse on StackExchange. As you can see, there is a problem with the ellipse. How do I fix this ? Thank you Fabrice \usemodule[tikz] \starttext \startMPcode def match (expr pos) = fill unitsquare xscaled 4cm yscaled 0.2cm shifted pos withcolor yellow; fill origin -- (4cm,0) -- (4.1cm,-0.05cm) -- (0.1cm,-0.05cm) -- cycle withcolor(.6yellow + black); draw origin -- (0,0.2cm) -- (4cm,0.2cm) -- (4cm,0) -- (4.1cm,-0.05cm) -- (0.1cm,-0.05cm) -- cycle; fill fullcircle xscaled 0.25cm yscaled 0.22cm shifted (4.125cm,0.1cm) withcolor red; draw fullcircle xscaled 0.25cm yscaled 0.22cm shifted (4.125cm,0.1cm) withshademethod "circular" withshadevector (0,1) withshadecolors (red,white) enddef; match((0,0)); \stopMPcode \starttikzpicture \define[2]\allumette{ \fill [yellow] (#1,#2) rectangle (#1+4,#2+0.2); \fill [yellow!60!black] (#1,#2) -- ++(4,0)-- ++(0.1,-0.05) -- ++(-4,0) -- ++(-0.1,0.05); \draw (#1,#2) -- ++(0,0.2) -- ++(4,0) -- ++(0,-0.2) -- ++(0.1,-0.05) -- ++(-4,0) -- ++(-0.1,0.05); \shade[ball color=red] (#1+4,#2+0.1) ellipse (0.25cm and 0.22cm); \draw (#1+4,#2+0.1) ellipse (0.25cm and 0.22cm); } \allumette{0.1}{0.2} \filldraw[orange,scale=0.5,shift={(8.2,1.2)}] (0,0) .. controls (-1.5,1.25) and (.5,2) ..
