Apparently it takes some time for my suggestion to get through to the
mailing list, so I send you a direct answer:
Isn't it easier to use arctime and the specify A and B as lengths
instead of points? For example:
A := 1cm;
B := 1cm;
draw subpath (arctime A of c, arctime (arclength c) - B of c) of c;
The code is not tested.

Hello,
wat to convert a metapost file to pdf by mptopdf:
my command: mptopdf.pl grid.mp
then grid.1 is created but no pdf. The output on the command line is:
C:\Documents and Settings\s0167070\Desktop\grid>mptopdf.pl grid.mp
TeXExec 5.4.3 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2005
unknown file type: texmfscripts
metapost : grid
format : metafun
(grid.mp [1]
metafun 2005-6-13 14:28
)
1 output file written: grid.1
Transcript written on grid.log.
total run time : 0 seconds
-fmt=mptopdf: unknown option
MPtoPDF 1.3 : grid is converted to grid-1.pdf
Any suggestions what goes wrong?
Thanks Wolfgang

You can patch:
SUPP-MPS.TEX:\newcount\MPobjectcounter
SUPP-MPS.TEX: {\global\advance\MPobjectcounter\plusone
SUPP-MPS.TEX: \setobject{MP}{\number\MPobjectcounter}\vbox
SUPP-MPS.TEX:
\setxvalue{#1}{\noexpand\getobject{MP}{\number\MPobjectcounter}}}
(\count's instead of \counters)

Maybe I made a mistake and deleted the real error messages. I am really
sorry for that. Now I attach the whole log file here. Thank you for your
patience.

Can you send me a minimal non working file?

Hello!
Whilst preparing some slides for DANTE I got the same
or a similar problem like Patrick...
- texexec tries to run mpost (no error, but apparently no effect)
- a myjob-mpgraph.mp is created
- if I run 'mpost -progname=mpost -mem=metafun myjob-mpgraph',
as it texexec does, a myjob-mpgraph.1 is created.
But this way I only get the last metapost graphic of the job,
and that's a bit few for several flowcharts and the presentation styles.
- cont-sys.tex seems to be ok (the '\let\initializeMPgraphics\empty'
hack has no effect)
- surely no PATH problem
- I rebuilt the formats and didn't forget texhash (mktexlsr)
- my pdfTeX is V.14g, ConTeXt the last week's beta
a part of the log:
---
layout : calculating backgrounds
\openout2 = `mpgraph.mp'.
Randomizer initialized to 1575252551.
figures : figure mpgraph can not be found
interaction : pdftex code inserted
...

Yes, you made the mistake to write xl.s := (1cm,0);
instead of xl.s = (1cm,0). By using :=, you are messing
up internal equations in the boxes package and the result
you get is normal. I've had this problem a few weeks ago,
and it took me a while to find out! Never use := in these
contexts!

Hello mpost fans,
[appologies for this second submission. I
just realised I forgot to add the attachments.]
I am having a problem I cannot understand.
Perhaps there's something wrong with my
installation. When I run mpost on attached
tmp.mp I get attached tmp.0.
I would have expected the letter $x$ to be
positioned at (1cm,0) but instead it is
positioned at (0,0). I've use boxes many
times but thins I cannot understand. Am I
doing something terribly wrong? Am I
overlooking something? Any other suggestions?

This has to do with the fact that glyps may stick out of their bounding
boxes.
If you use btex ... etex, you may want to add a \strut, otherwise:
picture p ; p := nullpicture ;
addto p also "abc" infont "somefont" ;
setbounds p to boundingbox p enlarged 1pt ;
draw p ;

Hi again,
For a long time I have noticed that certain parts
of text are not treated by metapost as being part
of the picture. I have attached an example, where a
part of the letter ``y'' of the word ``pointsGalway''
at the right of the picture falls outside the picture.
If I decrease the width of the boxes ate the right
the results gets even worse. BTW: The picture was
created using plain metapost. No ConTeXt was involved.
I used to put boxes around pictures to make metapost
aware of the fact that the actual size of the picture
is bigger. Is there a better way to do this?
As usual, any help will be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Marc van Dongen
