Hi,
I run this simple test file test.tex :
%&cont-en \setupoutput[pdftex] \runMPgraphicstrue \starttext \startMPrun input graphserieA \stopMPrun \externalfigure[mprun.1] \externalfigure[mprun.2] % \startMPrun input graphserieB \stopMPrun \externalfigure[mprun.1] \externalfigure[mprun.2] \stoptext \end .
In the logfile, I got the messages :
figures : figureobject test-mprun.1 is reused figures : figureobject test-mprun.2 is reused
and twice the figures of graphserieA.mp on test.pdf.
Is there a way to avoid the re-use of test-mprun.1 and test-mprun.2, I mean a way to overwrite the files test-mprun.1 and test-mprun.2 ?
Or a way to get different names for each metapost output as, for example, graphserieA-mprun.1, graphserieA-mprun.2 and graphserieB-mprun.1, graphserieB-mprun.2 ?
I could also give a different number to each of the figures in all of the *.mp files, but this solution is not pacticable since I have plenty of metapost files to process, each of it containing a lot of figures already numbered with almost the same numbers. Moreover, those numbers can not be modified because the figures are elsewhere referenced by their number and by the name of the metapost file.
You can redefine: \def\MPrunfile#1{\bufferprefix mprun.#1} to for instance \def\MPrunfile#1{\bufferprefix \MyMpRunFile.#1} \def\MyMpRunFile{mprun} and them change the definition of \MyMpRunFile whenever you want Hans ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE | pragma@wxs.nl Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: +31 (0)38 477 53 69 | fax: +31 (0)38 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- information: http://www.pragma-ade.com/roadmap.pdf documentation: http://www.pragma-ade.com/showcase.pdf -------------------------------------------------------------------------
