Hi,
that sounds very promising - especially --automp, since I don't really want to change my ConTeXt script everytime I changed a MP figure. Including --automp in my script file, however, didn't stop ConTeXt from recalculating my MP figures every time I typeset the document, even though I hadn't changed them in the meantime. I couldn't find anything about automp in the TeXExec manual, but the --help option tells me that automp causes it to render mp pictures only if needed. So how does it determine whether a recalculation is necessary or not? Is it a problem if my figures rely on the randomizers, like uniformdeviate()?
indeed, that can be solved by setting the random seed occasionally or manually \setupsystem[random=big] % or random=12345 Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
