Dear list,
I have some difficulty to reuse a static picture in a multipage MetaFun
document. I wish to define a complex image, with graphic and texts, and
manipulate this image at each page. As the minimal working example shows, if I
define a particular picture in the variable « AnImage » and a random text in
another picture called « AnotherImage », I can use these two pictures in the
first page of the document, but only one of them appears in the second page of
the document (with the same code). I know that if I replace
startMPinclusions/stopMPinclusions by
startMPinitializations/stopMPinitializations, this works, but the image is
recalculated (a different number is drawn), and I do not want this since the
image is complex and takes time to make.
So the question : how to make the two pictures « AnImage » and «
AnotherImage » appears in the both page ?
Thanks for any help !
Fabrice,
% MWE :
% 8< ---------------------------------------
\starttext
\startMPinclusions
picture AnImage , AnotherImage;
AnImage := image (
draw fullcircle scaled 40;
);
AnotherImage := image (
arandomnumber := uniformdeviate(1);
draw textext(decimal(arandomnumber)) scaled 0.5;
);
\stopMPinclusions
\startMPpage
draw AnImage ;
draw AnotherImage ;
\stopMPpage
\startMPpage
draw AnImage ;
draw AnotherImage ;
\stopMPpage
\stoptext
% 8< ---------------------------------------
