Subject: question about followtext in MP
Date: Tue, 22 May 2018 21:05:51 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <a2835abe-218a-4f3a-c954-6addd9e3b28b@gmx.es> (raw)
Dear list,
I have the following sample:
\starttext
\startMPcode
path p ; p := reverse halfcircle scaled 5cm;
path q ; q := reverse halfcircle rotatedaround (origin, 180)
scaled 5cm ;
draw p;
draw q;
draw followtext(p, "·Just follow the tokens") ;
draw followtext(q, "Just follow the tokens·") ;
draw followtext(reverse q, "Just follow the tokens·") ;
\stopMPcode
\stoptext
Is there any way to followtext in q without changing text direction?
I need to write the text counter-clockwise, but on outside of the path.
Reverse changes both text direction and side of the text (related to the
path) and I don’t want to change text direction.
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo
