It works with the label macro: \startMPpage[offset=2mm] path p, q, r ; pair z ; p := unitsquare scaled 4cm ; z := point 3.6 of p ; q := z--urcorner p ; r := q -- reverse bottomboundary p -- cycle ; draw p ; draw q ; draw r numberstriped (.25,10,5) withcolor blue ; labeloffset := 2mm ; label.llft("B", llcorner p) ; label.lrt ("C", lrcorner p) ; label.ulft("A", ulcorner p) ; label.urt ("D", urcorner p) ; label.lft ("M", z) ; \stopMPpage John
