Multi-line labels in MetaPost MKIV
Hello all, What is the recommended method for creating multi-line labels in MetaPost in MKIV, please? I have the following code: \definetextext[mplabel]{\framed[frame=off,align=middle]} \starttext \startMPpage input mp-tool; draw fullcircle scaled 5cm; label(\sometxt[mplabel]{One\\Two}, (0,0)); \stopMPpage \stoptext which gives a line feed between One and Two using MKII, but no line feed in MKIV.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I still don't get a line feed! I am using ConTeXt from 15-May-2010, has something changed since then? Richard Converteam UK Ltd.

in pack-rul.mkiv add \unexpanded here: \unexpanded\def\vboxednewline {\endgraf\ignorespaces} \unexpanded\def\hboxednewline {\unskip\normalspace\ignorespaces} and then remake the format (it's a side effect of nested framed usage) ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
