Re: [NTG-context] Can I share METAPOST vardefs over multiple pages?

Thank you. And if I want these in a separate file, what is the correct way to include them?

Can I reuse that varied across follow-up MPPages?

Sure, put the vardef inside \startMPinclusions:

\startMPinclusions vardef MyShape(expr w, h) = ... enddef ; \stopMPinclusions \startMPpage picture s ; s := MyShape(4cm, 2cm);

draw s; . . . \stopMPpage

\startMPpage picture s ; s := MyShape(8cm, 4cm);

draw s; . . . \stopMPpage
