I'm sorry, I ran it in a few variations, but neither does work here: \setupcolors[state=start] \startMPenvironment % both with and without: [global] \setupcolors[state=start] \stopMPenvironment \setupMPpage[offset=2mm] \startuseMPgraphic{test} label(textext("\color[green]{XYZ}"), (0,0)); % returns black XYZ on execute label(textext("\startcolor[red]{XYZ}\stopcolor"), (0,20)); % returns "unknown" on execute \stopuseMPgraphic \starttext \forceMPTEXgraphictrue \startMPpage \includeMPgraphic{test} \stopMPpage \stoptext I tried to run this on context-live but there got both outputs to "unknown". yours sincerely, dr.

Is it possible that \setupcolors[state=start] is not communicated?
indeed,
\startMPenvironment \setupcolors[state=start] \stopMPenvironment
if you want to share settings between the tex and mp runs:
\startMPenvironment[global] \setupcolors[state=start] \stopMPenvironment
