 From 2004...

No, I want also a blue sqrt symbol, but even this file:

%%%%% file test.mp
prologues:=3;
filenametemplate "%j.mps";
input latexmp ;
setupLaTeXMP(textextlabel=enable,multicolor=enable,
class="article",fontencoding="T1");

beginfig(1);
label("$\sqrt{\color{blue}2}$",(0,0));
label(btex $\sqrt{2}$ etex,(0,12));
endfig;
end;
%%%%% end of file test.mp

doesn't produce a correct file (the bar over 2 is missing).
