--show-profiles=1
Sets a flag in tdb file which enables profile calculation in MapSource
or
Basecamp based on contour lines.
No, if show-profiles = 1 and DEM data is present, the profile is calculated
from the DEM data and *not* from the contour lines
If DEM data (see "Hill Shading (DEM) options") is available the flag changes
the status line to show the height when you hover over an area with valid DEM
data.
Agree
Maybe add a remark that if show-profiles = 0 and DEM data is present, an
elevation profile is always available?

Hi Minko,
thanks for the data. I can confirm now that a profile is shown.
So, I suggest to change the description for the option from
--show-profiles=1
Sets a flag in tdb file which marks set mapset as having contour
lines and allows showing profile in MapSource. Default is 0
which means disabled.
to
--show-profiles=1
Sets a flag in tdb file which enables profile calculation in MapSource
or
Basecamp based on contour lines.
If DEM data (see "Hill Shading (DEM) options") is available the flag
changes the status line to show the height when you hover over an area
with
valid DEM data.
OK?
Gerd
