Oh, by the way, if I put \fpos at the beginning of a paragraph,
it adds an extra blank line. I have to force it to the
horizontal mode like:
\leavevmode\fpos{A-1} . . . \tpos{A-1}
So is it safe to change the definition of \fpos to add
\leavevmode at the beginning of the macro?

Hi Hans and Wolfgang,
I'm just trying to make some illustrations about the Chinese typesetting features. So I choose the way which is described in Chapter 5 of the metafun manual. And I wanna draw a line from the text I wanna comment on to the marginal notes which my comments lay on.
To highlight them, I drew an underline below the contexts which is to be commented and put a square around the comments. Everything is under control except I put \fpos and \tpos around the comments, the framed box is not exactly what I want. It seems that metafun still thought it's in the main text so it drew the bounding around the body.
I found the mpos:par was defined in core-pgr.tex and it used show_par or draw_par which are defined in mp-core.mp. I don't think it's a good way to define another MPpositiongraphic called like mpos:marginpar to match my case. Do you think it's possible to change some of the core codes to make metafun recognize where she is.
