Hello, I would like to know if it is possible in MetaPost (in particular MetaFun) to get all the possible intersection points of the paths, with some kind of simple command, with a syntax like, say: A[] := path1 intersections path2 (where the resulting list could be either a list of points or a list of time pairs, like for intersectiontimes). Another possible syntax could be path3 := path1 intersections path2 which would give a path for which times 0, 1, 2, 3, ... give the first, second, third, fourth, ... intersection point. Anything like this? -- Giuseppe "Oblomov" Bilotta
