\MPcode

Summary

The command \MPcode is used for Metapost inline graphics.

Settings

\MPcode{...}{...}
{...}metafun minifun extrafun lessfun doublefun binaryfun decimalfun mprun metapost nofun doublepost binarypost decimalpost simplefun
{...}content

Description

Similar to the environment \startMPcode but see the example.

\MPcode introduces an horizontal space after, and the bounding box of the graphic keep the drawing origine (more accurate description, and/or more explanation probably required).


It was introduced in 2010 to reduce needed calls with lua. Source: https://mailman.ntg.nl/archives/users/73e723be437f45319340df29d9b5c94c/

Before :

\startluacode
  context("text before")
  context.startMPcode()
  context("fill fullcircle scaled 2cm withcolor darkyellow;")
  context.stopMPcode()
  context("text after.")
\stopluacode

After

\startluacode
  context("text before")
  context.MPcode("fill fullcircle scaled 2cm withcolor darkgreen;")
  context("text after.")
\stopluacode

Examples

Example 1


With \tex{startMPcode} and no shift, text before
\startMPcode
        fill fullcircle scaled 1cm                   withcolor darkred;
\stopMPcode
and text after

With \tex{MPcode} and no shift, text before
\MPcode{fill fullcircle scaled 1cm                   withcolor darkred;}
and text after

With \tex{MPcode} and with shift, text before
\MPcode{fill fullcircle scaled 1cm shifted (0,0.5cm) withcolor darkred;}
and text after

With \tex{startMPcode} and with shift, text before
\startMPcode
        fill fullcircle scaled 1cm shifted (0,0.5cm) withcolor darkred;
