Hi,
If you add \dontleavehmode before the MP graphic that starts the line,
you will be fine. There is something to read about it here:

Hi,
I have just encountered a (to me) slightly surprising behaviour in ConTeXt LMTX 2024.10.31: there seems to be an automatic line break after a Metapost picture if it is at the start of a paragraph. Here is a simple example showing this behaviour:
------------------------------------------------------------------ \starttext % Two different lines \startMPcode fill fullcircle scaled 10pt; \stopMPcode text
% Single line text \startMPcode fill fullcircle scaled 10pt; \stopMPcode \stoptext ------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm not sure whether this is a bug or intended behaviour, though - maybe this is the expected output for users more familiar with TeX and/or ConTeXt than I am. I would have two question, though:
1) Is there a canonical way to get the second behaviour (multiple Metapost pictures and text on the same line) if the first Metapost picture starts the paragraph? One workaround seems to be to add \noindent (plus \hskip if I do want indentation) before the first Metapost picture, but maybe there is a better way.
2) If this is intended behaviour, is there already a description of it in the Wiki or would it make sense for me to add it?
