Hi Bruce,
that's strange, it should work at any scale. What is error cp-02 ?
Cp-02 from therion, actually the metapost complains about the tmpx in the loop that calculates the position of the intermediate text labels. It is some sort of numeric overflow. As from the wiki it only runs for me if scale = 1:1000. If I constrain the loop to cycle only twice it runs for scale =1:500, 1:1000, 1:2000, 1:5000, but crashes similarly for 1:10000.
change the line to tmpx:=tmpl * (i * 2 / l - 1); works for me up to 1:30000 I'll change it in the wiki. Cheers, Thomas
