How do you make an enumeration
where the enumeration
counter appears within a frame decorated with Metafun?
The idea is to have something similar to an example on pg. 144 of the Metafun manual:
Except that "Zapf (1)" would be a counter rather a manual label.
Here is the code that reproduces the example with the manual frame:
\startuseMPgraphic{FunnyFrame}
picture p ; numeric w, h, o ;
p := textext.rt(\MPstring{FunnyFrame}) ;
w := OverlayWidth ; h := OverlayHeight ; o := BodyFontSize ;
p := p shifted (2o,h-ypart center p) ; draw p ;
drawoptions (withpen pencircle scaled 1pt withcolor .625red) ;
draw (2o,h)--(0,h)--(0,0)--(w,0)--(w,h)--(xpart urcorner p,h) ;
draw boundingbox p ;
setbounds currentpicture to unitsquare xyscaled(w,h) ;
\stopuseMPgraphic
\defineoverlay[FunnyFrame][\useMPgraphic{FunnyFrame}]
\defineframedtext[FunnyText][frame=off,background=FunnyFrame]
\def\StartFrame{\startFunnyText}
\def\StopFrame {\stopFunnyText }
\def\FrameTitle#1%
{\setMPtext{FunnyFrame}{\hbox spread 1em{\hss\strut#1\hss}}}
\setMPtext{FunnyFrame}{}
\starttext
\FrameTitle{Zapf (1)}
\StartFrame
Coming back to the use of typefaces in electronic
publishing: many of the new typographers receive their
knowledge and information about the rules of typography from
books, from computer magazines or the instruction manuals
which they get with the purchase of a PC or software.
\StopFrame
\stoptext
I was able to make enough progress to add an answer to this problem, but I'm still unsure if it's the right way to go.
