Excellent: Bruce as you say not as elegant and I am sure what I was trying is suppose to work. I have 3 symbols to swap, but your lateral thinking will allow me to do what I want at the moment thanks Andrew On 28/04/13 22:04, Bruce wrote:
Andrew For the situation you describe I have always copied the whole metapost definition for the new look symbol. Your way is more elegant and simpler, but I have never tried it. Not sure why it would work for points and not for lines. Bruce

As far as I understand that changes from one set to another not one symbol for another
So unsing symbol-assign if I was using the UIS set of symbols but wanted the AUT boulders I could use symbol assign, but what I want to do is to change all my wall:boulders into plain walls which are both in the UIS symbol set, which is why I tied the let command in metapost, it works for points but it seems not for lines
thanks
