So I thing the case should work as expected. Could you send complete-and-minimal example?
\starttext \startMPcode externalfigure "hacker.jpg" scaled 300; \stopMPcode \stoptext
where hacker.jpg is from the official samples.
its possible to use the natural size, but i found out that the code that i use for that is not in the distribution (will be in the next zip) This will create a dimensions file mpfigs.mp: \startmode[*first] \executesystemcommand{texexec --fig=d *.jpg} \stopmode \starttext \startMPcode input mpfigs.mp ; naturalfigure("hacker.jpg") ; \stopMPcode \stoptext 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
