The problem that I have with colour is that assigning the colours
automatically means it's difficult to get matching colours on plan and
elevation. It works on straightforward cases, you just put the maps in the
same order on plan & elevation & it assigns the colours in the same order.
This does not work if you have a number of elevations on different
projections. Thus far I've only managed this match by post-processing in
GIMP or Paint.net.
The ability to assign colours would be useful indeed.

I've been doing some more work on my Therion Tutorial, which has led me to
explore more options than I typically use. One of these is to colour scraps
different colours. All I can find in the Therion Book is how to specify to
colour map-fg by altitude or by scrap. If I do either of these then the
colours are assigned automatically. I've searched my email history and seen
that colour by altitude has been discussed before, but I can't work out if
there is supposed to be a way to set the colour for a scrap?
If this isn't currently possible, then if would be ideally implemented in
the layout so that if is not coded into the drawings of the scraps
themselves. Perhaps a syntax to let you specify as follows:
colour
Am I missing a way to do this in the existing release?

I use colour by scrap quite often as a drawing aid. Random is fine for that.
Colour by map would be the more useful to be able to specify for 'finished
presentations'.?
Colour by map has been discussed and requested from time to time.

Does colour by map not work? I thought it was an option specified in the
Therion book in this section:
? colo[u]r ? customize colour for special map items (map-fg,
mapbg, preview-above, preview-below, label). Colour range is 0?100 for
grayscale,
[0?100
0?100 0?100] triplet for RGB colours.
For map-fg, you can use altitude, scrap or map as colours. In this case the
map is coloured acco
