parameters in startuseMPgraphic
![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/29c7bbff49b1599eddb2ec73fd9ffa6e.jpg?s=120&d=mm&r=g)
I used to pass (color) parameters to \startuseMPgraphic with: \startuseMPgraphic{square}{acolor} draw unitsquare withcolor \MPvar{acolor}; % or \MPcolor{acolor} In both cases I get the following error: metapost > initializing instance 'metafun' using format 'metafun' metapost > loading 'metafun' as '/Users/hansm/TeX/context-09/tex/texmf-context/metapost/context/base/metafun.mpiv' using method 'default' metapost > initializing number mode 'scaled' check > missing or ungrouped '=' after 'green' in line '7 (442>square:)' Has something changed in this mechanism of parameter use, or am I doing something wrong?

I don’t if you’re doing something wrong because you send only code snippets which makes it hard to tell where the problem lies. \starttext \startuseMPgraphic{square}{acolor} draw unitsquare scaled 10 withcolor \MPvar{acolor} ; \stopuseMPgraphic \useMPgraphic{square}{acolor=red} \useMPgraphic{square}{acolor=blue} \stoptext Wolfgang
