[Therion] Mine sybols?
Hallo everyone, hearing discussiong about symbols I thought again about mine specific symbols. While I have to admit I have perhaps not searched thoroughly, I have not found any included in therion. Well, I would be willing to design some. But it surely would be better to determine which symbols/areas would be needed first. Many of these are already in convention elsewhere, so work should be relatively straightforward. To begin I have the following suggestions. Unforunately my english is not good enough, so to avoid possible confusion I add the german words. I would be glad if a german speaker could name the translations. 1. Shaft / Schacht (up and down) 2. Sinking (?) / Gesenk 3. Weather (ventile) door / Wettertür 4. Doorway (for supporting) / Türstock (standing and ruined) 5. Where ore was mined / Abbau (up and down) 6. Hole for rolling ore downwards / Rolloch 7. Wagon rolling planks / Hundbretter 8. Hand driven wind / Haspel 9. Chamber for hand driven wind / Haspelkammer 10. Water flowing gutter / Gerinne 11. Lamp niche / Lampennische 12. Upraise / Aufhauen 13. Galley end (constr. end) / Ortsbrust 14. Hewn material / Versatz 15. Versturz 16. Special tool traces / Werkzeugspuren (Please add to the list) If I provide drawn symbols, would anyone help me converting these to metapost? It would also be nice if fellow miners would suggest symbols, too. Best greetings, and to my fellow miners a hearty Barbara's day!

[Therion] Legend Size
The latest snapshot (2007-12-06) makes this much easier. You can
change both color and size of the legend text using the following code
in the layout
code tex-map
\legendwidth=20cm
\legendtextcolor={\color[0 0 100]} # RGB values 0--100
\legendtextsize={\size[20]}
\legendtextheadersize={\size[60]}

Thanks, but what about plan projection - there is no symbol for water-drop? And last question, what is the difference between "water drop" and "water fall"? Could we use water-fall keyword for this symbol? Regards, S.

Some time ago I have > tried something similar, but it was not very successful - my 3D model was a > mess of planes, in which it was very difficult to see what is what. In 2D maps there is the standard geologist strike/dip symbol that looks like a T, with the bar in the plane, and the leg pointing in the direction of steepest descent. How to construct these planes in 3D is not exactly obvious. My guess is that using sqares or disks intersecting the tubes would be easiest to implement. These planes would just be rims around the tubes. Colors would be given based to feature designation (all "Kieselkalk" is blue, all "fault1" is red). BTW: I have thrown together a therion-mode for Emacs (ripped out python-mode) which makes editing *.th files easier, and C-c C-c run therion. I'll still have to implement "jump to error" as in cc-mode. If someone is interested I can post it here. Best, Martin
