\reuseMPgraphic
Syntax
\reuseMPgraphic{...} | |
{...} | name under which the graphic will be known |
Description
Reuse a MetaPost graphic that was defined with \startreusableMPgraphic.
Example
\def\mycolor{.625red} \startreusableMPgraphic{name} fill fullcircle scaled 20pt withcolor \mycolor; \stopreusableMPgraphic red: \reuseMPgraphic{name} \def\mycolor{.625blue} blue: \reuseMPgraphic{name}
The \reuseMPgraphic command can be used to define overlays:
\startreusableMPgraphic{beta} fill unitsquare xyscaled (\overlaywidth, \overlayheight) % `uniformdeviate 1 produces a random number between 0 and 1` withcolor (uniformdeviate 1, uniformdeviate 1, uniformdeviate 1); \stopreusableMPgraphic \defineoverlay [beta] [\reuseMPgraphic{beta}] \dontleavehmode \framed[background=beta]{narrow} \framed[background=beta]{narrow} \framed[background=beta]{rather wide}
