Description
This command sets up the default MetaPost instance metafun
or a custom MetaPost instance previously defined with \defineMPinstance.
Usage
To print all MetaPost labels in red:
\setupMPinstance [metafun] [textcolor=red] \starttext \startMPcode draw textext("some text") ; \stopMPcode \stoptext
Another example using the setups
key:
\defineMPinstance [mpinstanceprefixed] [metafun] [setups=mp:instanceprefix:one, textcolor=red] \startsetups mp:instanceprefix:one prefix:\space \stopsetups \starttext \startMPcode draw textext("normal text") ; \stopMPcode \startMPcode{mpinstanceprefixed} draw textext("red text") ; \stopMPcode \stoptext
The above code prints:
normal text prefix: red text
“normal text” is printed in black, as well as “prefix:”, only “red text” is printed in red.
