[Therion] Compatibility with Survex
Thanks guys. Yes, I am doing as Footleg suspected and importing already generated survex.3d files in this case. That's partially to save time, as I seem to be on a deadline with this, strange feeling for a survey project, and that's the way much of the data is getting to me. I have also been given some data in Compass.dat files & I can import that into Survex to generate a .3d but I've been never been able to get it to import directly into Therion. Does it? I could convert the data to Therion but that's time consuming to get right & as I said, I seem to have a deadline on this. However, thanks to Footleg I now know which version of Survex to use. I'd gone all the way back to 1.1.15 just to make sure it worked! Graham
[Therion] Compatibility with Survex
Thanks Bruce. Just to be completely clear in case anyone is confused, the fix which Bruce has documented on the wiki is for when Therion is using Survex to generate centreline coordinates from survey data entered into Therion project files. My 'generate the 3d file using the -v7 argument' fix is for projects where you import an already generated 3d file into the Therion project to define the survey centreline (e.g. Within the 'survey' block: import West_Kingsdale_System.3d -surveys use -cs OSGB:SD ) Footleg On 15 January 2014 17:46, Bruce wrote: > Graham > > The Windows solution is to either install Survex 1.2.6 (I think) which > produces âv7 format .3d files, or > > use a current version of Survex and tell it to produce âv7 format, either > Footlegâ sway or as I just added to the wiki > > > http://therion.speleo.sk/wiki/doku.php/faq#how_to_pass_survex_command_line_parameters_using_therion > > > > Bruce > > > -- > > *From:* therion-bounces at speleo.sk [mailto:therion-bounces at speleo.sk] *On > Behalf Of *Graham Mullan > *Sent:* Thursday, 16 January 2014 3:49 a.m. > *To:* therion at speleo.sk > *Subject:* [Therion] Compatibility with Survex > > > > In the latest project in which I am involved, I am having to import data > from Survex (actually from Compass via Survex but that's another story!). > This requires importing survex 3d files.

[Therion] Compatibility with Survex
Hi Graham, I have the same scenario (some of my Therion projects import a Survex 3d file to define the centreline. The easiest solution is to use the version switch when generating the 3d files to generate the 3d file version which Therion can read. I wrote a batch file with the following line to do this for my main project: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Survex\cavern.exe" -v7 mycavedata.svx Other more technical solutions may enable Therion to read the newer format 3D files (I expect Wookey is already typing something about the Debian version as I write this!)

I already fixed this in Debian, and the necessary patch is here: http://sources.debian.net/src/therion/5.3.11-2/debian/patches/update-survex-img-parser-to-v8.patch There an uptodate 5.3.12 version in here: http://www.wookware.org/software/repo/pool/main/t/therion/therion_5.3.12-1.debian.tar.xz (That's not uploaded officially yet as I'm trying to solve the tk-img missing background image issue first) ( http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=718294 ) Wookey -- Principal hats: Linaro, Emdebian, Wookware, Balloonboard, ARM http://wookware.org/
[Therion] Compatibility with Survex
In the latest project in which I am involved, I am having to import data from Survex (actually from Compass via Survex but that's another story!). This requires importing survex 3d files. The problem that I have is that .3d files generated in the most recent iterations of Survex cannot be read by Therion. I had the same problem some years back & eventually they caught up with each other, but it seems that the Survex format has changed too much once again. Can this be rectified, please 'cos it's a pain in the bum. Graham -- next part -- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
