For me this works only with context 2008-10-31.
It doesn't work with the beta from 2008-01-18 (no background).
Do you mean 2009-01-18?

The example works correctly with ConTeXt ver: 2009.01.18 14:39 MKIV fmt: 2009.1.25 int: english/english as well as with MKII Alan Thanks for your answer. I installed the 2009-01-18 yesterday at home on my mac. Everything works fine! Now I re-reinstalled the 2009-01-18 on the windows machine at work, and I get the same result as before: no gray background. I even did the "texexec --make metafun --standalone" from Wolfgang, but still no background. I noticed that on the win system the <filename>-mpgraph.4000 etc. and -mpgraph.keep files don't appear at all; they do appear of course with 2008-10-31. Appearently these are holding the code for the background. Any ideas? Thanks in advance Thomas Finally I've found the problem. In the cont-sys files from 2009-01-18 the following two lines are enabled: \runMPgraphicstrue \runMPTEXgraphicstrue (in 2008-10-31 they are still outcommented) But to make this work on windows a few additional steps were necessary: 1. texexec --make --alone metafun (as Wolfgang already mentioned) 2. copy the new metafun.mem from \Documents and Settings\username\.texlive2008\texmf-var\web2c\ to the 'normal' texmf directory (\texlive\2008\texmf-var\web2c\metapost). 3. Enable write18 in the texmf.cnf 4. remake the formats Greetings Thomas ____________________________________________________________________________ _______ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ____________________________________________________________________________ _______
