Subject: Re: transparent metafun colors turn nearly black

Message-ID: <E1GRKXO-0001B9-00@skye.ra.phy.cam.ac.uk> (raw)

These were the memory setting in the /etc/texmf/texmf.d/95NonPath.cnf
configlet that is part of Debian and Ubuntu:

main_memory = 1000000 % words of inimemory available; also applies to inimf&mp
main_memory.context = 1500000
main_memory.mpost = 1500000

I commented out the .mpost line (there was no separate metafun line,
which I guess was getting the main_memory value of 1000000),
regenerated the texmf.cnf with "update-texmf", then regenerated
metafun with "texexec --make metafun" and transparency worked.  So
thanks for the magic!

Have wikified the above in case anyone else runs into it

(I wonder if the live context has been having the same problem?)
