That I spotted and corrected, but I'm getting another error, I suppose: $ cat mp.tex \starttext Lorem Ipsum…
\startMPcode draw ( (0,0)--(1,0)--(0,1)) with color red ; Change "with color" to "withcolor" (no space).
Here is a more detailed example that mimics the tikz code that you sent in the other email. \definecolor[myblue][r=0.3,g=0.3,b=1] \definecolor[myred][r=0.6,g=0.2,b=0] \starttext \startMPpage newpair A, B, C; A := (-7.7, 2.75)*1cm; B := (0.88, 2.57)*1cm; C := (-3.04, -3.37)*1cm; newpath triangle; triangle := A -- B -- C -- cycle; fill triangle withcolor "myred" withtransparency("normal", 0.1); draw triangle withpen pencircle scaled 2pt withcolor "myred"; dotlabeldiam := 5pt; dotlabel.lft("A", A) withcolor "myblue"; dotlabel.rt ("B", B) withcolor "myblue"; dotlabel.bot("C", C) withcolor "myblue"; \stopMPpage \stoptext In ConTeXt, if you put quotes around the name of a color, it looks at the colors defined in tex rather than colors defined in metapost. This allows you to easily share the same colors in text and figures. As an elegent example of this see this excellent imitation of Byrne's Euclid: https://github.com/jemmybutton/byrne-euclid/releases/download/0.6%2B0.3/byrn...
