Large unwanted white space
Hi, I don't know if I will explain my problem clearly but I will try. For my students' tests, I use a master file. If I insert this piece of code, there is a large white space that is created between the horizontal line of the header and the first exercise. Thanks for your help. Fabrice \startMPcode def suite (expr n, t) = begingroup numeric u; u := 5mm; pickup pencircle scaled 5pt; for i=0 upto n: for j=0 upto n: drawdot (i*u,j*u) shifted(t*u,0) withcolor \MPcolor{darkred}; endfor endfor endgroup enddef; def Suite (expr n, t) = begingroup numeric u; u := 5mm; pickup pencircle scaled 5pt; for i=0 upto n: drawdot(i*u,0) shifted(t*u,0) withcolor \MPcolor{blue}; endfor endgroup enddef; def cross (expr n, t) = begingroup numeric u; u := 5mm; pickup pencircle scaled 5pt; for i=-n upto n: drawdot(0,i*u) shifted(t*u,0) withcolor \MPcolor{blue}; endfor endgroup enddef; \stopMPcode __________________________________________________________ %horizontal line % big unwanted white space \starttext % \startex First exercise \startlinecorrection[blank] \startmidaligned \startcombination[1*2] {\startMPcode Suite(2,0); cross(1,1); Suite(4,4); cross(2,6); Suite(6,10); cross(3,13); \stopMPcode }{\tfx \bf Suite 1} {\startMPcode suite(0,0); suite(1,2); suite(2,5); \stopMPcode }{\tfx \bf Suite 2} \stopcombination \stopmidaligned \stoplinecorrection %\stopex \stoptext

\startMPcode
If I’m not wrong, \startMPcode immediately executes the code. I don’t know why it does if it only contains definitions. Try \startMPinitializations (executed for every MP instance) or \startMPdefinitions (only once). Hraban

\startMPcode makes an image so it will take space for definitions use \startMPdefinitions
