Hi Gerd, please find attached a small patch that improves the documentation primarily for the following, but with a few other minor tweaks:
removal of the statement about putting --description after -c template.args, as this incorrect simplification of the description of --style-file as this was confusing clarification that the number of bytes are the file sizes in the Hill Shading section I note that the '' symbols used to denote arcseconds are being interpreted as italic identifiers <i></i> by whatever process produces the web page. I suggest this process needs to be changed so that this does not happen. I have replaced the first mentions of '' with words. If the process cannot easily be changed, I suggest that the remaining '' symbols are replaced with arc second or arc seconds. I also note that the --dem-dists mentions that values should be a multiple or submultiple of 3314 or 9942 then goes on to suggest values that are multiples of 3312, which I believe is the nearest value to 3314 that is a multiple of 16. I think the explanation needs some improvement by someone who knows exactly how it works. I have been experimenting with various values of --dem-dists - the default value of 9936 works fine for me at higher resolutions in Basecamp, but becomes very blocky at low resolution. I find --dem-dists=9936,9936,9936,9936,9936,9936,39744,317952 gives the best results for my levels of 0:24,1:22,2:21,3:20,4:19,5:18,6:17,7:15. Based on this, I'd be very surprised if the example in the documentation of --dem-dists=3312,13248,26512,53024 for levels 0:24, 1:22, 2:20, 3:18 gives decent results at resolution 18. However, not having any 1 arc second DEM data, I can't try it. Regards, Mike
