Hello Sebastian (sorry for sending twice; this time to the list),
\startuseMPgraphic{test} draw textext("$\frac{a}{b}$"); draw textext("$\root a \of b$"); \stopuseMPgraphic
any reason you use textext here? Do you need changing labels? If not, you should use -------------------------------------------------- \startuseMPgraphic{test} draw btex $\frac{a}{b}$ etex; draw btex $\root a \of b$ etex shifted (10,10) \stopuseMPgraphic \useMPgraphic{test} -------------------------------------------------- as a workaround. But this still looks like an unwanted behaviour to me. Patrick
