But the pdf changes only the second time that I run texexec (and each time, texexec runs metafun for the embedded graphic). However, the pdf changes right away if I give --final to texexec. So, is --final a requirement when using metafun, or am I hacking around a problem I've caused by leaving something out? Oh, having heeded Aditya's earlier advice on the list: \write18 is enabled. =============== cut here ========== \starttext \startreusableMPgraphic{a} r := 1cm; fill fullcircle scaled r; \stopreusableMPgraphic \placefigure[force,none]{}{\reuseMPgraphic{a}} the figure above should be a small circle \stoptext =============== cut here ========== -Sanjoy
