1.) EPS/PDF import
How do I make an existing EPS or PDF image a part of some other meta[post/play] graphic?
Use externalfigure (Metafun manual, 8.4 Including graphics)
Oh, thanks a lot. I was so stupid that I somehow overlooked that it was a chapter about inclusion of figures in other graphics and not in text, although I've seen these pages quite a couple of times.
2.) \underbrace
I wrote the following two macros for drawing braces in graphics:
\def\underbracedescription#1#2{$\underbrace{\hbox{\vrule width#1 height 0bp}}_{\hbox{\strut #2}}$} \def\rightbracedescription#1#2{$\displaystyle{\left.\vphantom{\hbox{\vrule width0bp height#1 depth#1}}\right\}\hbox{\strut #2}}$}
However, the width has to be given manually - it doesn't care about the
I do not understand what is your desire.
I want to make something like [start of TeX code] \displaystyle{\underbrace{x^2+y^2=z^2}_{\hbox{simple equation}}} [end of tex code] except that there has to be a metapost picture instead of "x^2+y^2=z^2" Or, see page 22 of http://remote.science.uva.nl/~heck/Courses/mptut.pdf. (The example is made by stretching normal braces, but that's ugly)
But in the case of obtaining real dimmensions: \setbox0=\hbox{ ... }%
Is it possible to place a graphic inside a \hbox in some btex ... etex or textext expression? In that case this would help me a lot, otherwise I'll keep playing with \[something]MP[something]. Thanks again, Mojca Miklavec
