Hi Tom, you simply get what you draw (the OverlayBox is always a square). See page 50 in the MetaFun manual for a solution... Best wishes, Peter Tom schrieb:
Shadows on round-corner textboxes are producing square-corner shaded boxes with square-corner shadows. The following code illustrates the problem and should run asis.
\def\Demos{
\startuniqueMPgraphic{shadow}
fill OverlayBox shifted (4pt,-4pt) withcolor .8white ;
fill OverlayBox withcolor .8white ;
draw OverlayBox withcolor black ;
setbounds currentpicture to OverlayBox ;
