Sanjoy sez:
The figure searching code gets confused if a file of the same basename (but in a different directory) has already been loaded.
I remember I ran into that as well (more than a year ago) and I ended up renaming my figures to figure1-1.pdf etc. It actually turned out to be easier for me, because that way I could use the figure filename as the reference.
Good idea, thanks. I might also integrate the figures (they're all MetaPost) into the .tex source, what I couldn't do in (e)plain TeX. I expect I'll have a few questions after I try that :-) The MetaFun manual already told me the answer to one of them: how to have common settings and macros across all the MetaPost figures (\startMPinclusions). -Sanjoy `Never underestimate the evil of which men of power are capable.' --Bertrand Russell, _War Crimes in Vietnam_, chapter 1.
