Hi, there are some problems in combination with the 'withshade' operator in mlib. this must be patched in mp-mlib.mp (':=' instead of '='; too much lua ;) vardef define_circular_shade (expr a, b, ra, rb, ca, cb) = _defined_cs_ := _defined_cs_ + 1 ; _defined_cs_pre_ [_defined_cs_] := "cs" ; _defined_cs_post_[_defined_cs_] := "0 1 " & decimal shadefactor & " " & colordecimals ca & " " & ddecimal (a shifted shadeoffset) & " " & decimal ra & " " & colordecimals cb & " " & ddecimal (b shifted shadeoffset) & " " & decimal rb ; _defined_cs_ enddef ; vardef define_linear_shade (expr a, b, ca, cb) = _defined_cs_ := _defined_cs_ + 1 ; _defined_cs_pre_ [_defined_cs_] := "ls" ; _defined_cs_post_[_defined_cs_] := "0 1 " & decimal shadefactor & " " & colordecimals ca & " " & ddecimal (a shifted shadeoffset) & " " colordecimals cb & " " & ddecimal (b shifted shadeoffset) ; _defined_cs_ enddef ; i still get an error after this patch, because '_defined_cs_' is not increased somehow (donno why, not my day; cleared mem, remade formats). _defined_cs_pre_0 is of course undefined.
