The code below shows a cyclic path that I am interested in creating (it is in red if you run the code). The example works fine as long as I have, u:=1cm, as in the code below. But if I replace it by , u:=0.6cm, there is no output. There is an error saying that paths 4 and 3 do not intersect. Is this a bug?
Thanks for your help.

hm.. can you try with tracingall; cyclicPath := buildcycle(Lint[1]--Lint[2],Curve,Lint[3]--Lint[4],reverse xaxis,yaxis); ? -- luigi
