[Therion] Therion 5.3.16 - Error opening th and th2 files

2015-01-08 Thread Stacho Mudrak
Hi Bill,

it looks to me, that commands that are shown are dynamic library routines,
not the system commands.

When I will have time, I can install Fedora on some machine to see, what is
going on. It is really strange.

It looks to me, that tk_getOpenFile fails from some reason, but it looks
like a tcltk installation problem, not the therion one. At least, it fails
in /usr/share/tk8.6/tkfbox.tcl, which is I believe a part of TclTk
installation.

Are you able to run in X console:

wish
% tk_getOpenFile

It should open File Open dialog. But if you are able to open thcofig file,
it is probably a wrong lead...

S.

[Therion] Therion 5.3.16 - Error opening th and th2 files

2015-01-08 Thread Stacho Mudrak
Looks strange, especially, when it works in compiler. As far as I know,
nothing was touched in xtherion in newest version.

Are you able to open new file via File->Open or Ctrl+O?

[Therion] Altitude colors range

2015-01-08 Thread Stacho Mudrak
Wrong colors with centerline attached is a bug, that has allways been
there. Just change thscrap.cxx:68 and next line to

this->z = thnan;
this->a = thnan;

and it should be fixed (if you can compile therion). Thanks for finding
this out.

[Therion] Therion 5.3.16 - Error opening th and th2 files

2015-01-08 Thread Bill Gee
Hi Stacho -

If I name the thconfig file on the xtherion command line, then it will open.  
If 
I run xtherion with no command line options, then use File-Open to get a 
thconfig file, it will fail.

Running tk_getOpenFile inside wish works.  It opens a file browser dialog box.

I reverted one of my test systems to therion 5.3.15.  The problem still 
exists.  There is no "make uninstall" target, so I just deleted the three 
binary files (loch, therion, xtherion) from /usr/local/bin and then compiled 
and installed 5.3.15.

I have version 8.6.3 of both Tcl and Tk.

So far all of my testing has been on Fedora 21 systems.  I have a Centos 7 
test system which has never had Therion installed.  Tomorrow I will give it a 
try.

Thanks - Bill Gee

7. 1. 2015 v 19:41, Bruce :


>>So what it is looking like, if the contributory maps are all derived from
scraps (or maps in turn derived from scraps), then the altitude range is
correct.

But if there is a map that is centerline derived (ie has no scraps) then the
altitude minima is set to zero.





>Only one question: do you have defined entrance?



Yes, the survey network has a number of entrances defined.  One of which is
present in the exported map I was experimenting with.

Not sure if this is the right answer but see if the info from line 113 of 
http://sources.debian.net/src/therion/5.3.16-3/debian/README.Debian/
helps at all

You'll have to translate it to windows-speak

[Therion] Altitude colors range

2015-01-08 Thread Footleg
Now I have added this into my surveys, I see that the centreline is
rendered as solid lines when you include the centreline (and have not
set the centreline symbol group to be hidden), but if you do not
include the centreline then the survey lines renderer in the scraps
are just dashes at each station rather than complete lines running the
complete distance between pairs of stations. Not a problem, but
curious as to why I get two different styles for cave survey lines.

Then I tried this on my 66km system survey and with centrelines set to
show in my layout, I found metapost used up all the words of memory it
is allowed so I get no output. From my logfile:

Here is how much of MetaPost's memory you used:
 6498 strings out of 6522
 15689 string characters out of 34452
 151 words of memory out of 150
 1389 symbolic tokens out of 16384
 12i,75n,41p,489b,3f stack positions out of 300i,84n,5000p,608b,15f
 10510 string compactions (moved 140463121 characters, 13446441
strings)371 output files written: data.1 .. data.4017

How can I get around this limitation?

[Therion] Therion 5.3.16 - Error opening th and th2 files

2015-01-08 Thread Bill Gee
Hi Stacho -

Both File-Open and Ctrl-O give the same error.  I tried it on several different 
caves, too, and nothing changed.  I also tried creating a new file.  Same 
error.

I even tried it on a brand new cave by opening xtherion and then immediately 
going to the text edit window and trying to create a new file.

I tried it on both 32-bit and 64-bit Fedora 21.  No change, same behavior on 
both.

When I did that last, there were some interesting messages in the bash window.  

=
[bgee at main2 ~]$ bgerror failed to handle background error.
Original error: invalid after png_start_read_image or png_read_update_info
Error in bgerror: can't invoke "grab" command: application has been 
destroyed
bgerror failed to handle background error.
Original error: can't read "data(upd,afterid)": no such variable
Error in bgerror: can't invoke "tk" command: application has been 
destroyed

bash: tk: command not found
[bgee at main2 ~]$

I confirmed that tk is installed, yet there is no command called tk.

When I get a chance, I will revert a computer back to 5.3.15 and see what 
happens.

Thanks - Bill Gee

I try to open either a th or th2 file (text editor or map editor windows), it 
throws an error.  I took a screen shot and attached to this message.

The error comes up as soon as I click on the File-Open icon.  It never 
presents a file chooser dialog.

The cave will compile correctly.  The thconfig file opens without error.  This 
all worked in 5.3.15.

The system is 64-bit Fedora 21.

Any ideas?

Thanks - Bill Gee

[Therion] Altitude colors range

2015-01-08 Thread Footleg
I see it too now. I have not realised you could include just a
centreline in the map. It shows every survey station and leg in the
cave, rather than just those included in scraps right? When I add that
my altitude baseline is set to 0m like yours using 5.3.16

I've not done this before as I had assumed I could only see survey
sections which were drawn in scraps. I can see how it is useful to be
able to render centrelines and stations for the entire system
regardless.

[Therion] Altitude colors range

2015-01-08 Thread Bruce
>Or maybe I am not understanding what you mean by including the centreline
in the map



Like this

map DeckExtensionPlanMap -title "The Deck ExtensionUpper
LevelsMiddle Earth CaveGreenlink System"

 .

 36-BigWednesdayPlan at MiddleEarth

 36-BigWednesdayPlanCL at MiddleEarth

. 

end map



where the contributory maps look like this.



map 36-BigWednesdayPlanCL -title "36-BigWednesday centreline Plan"
-projection plan

  36 #centreline survey

endmap



map 36-BigWednesdayPlan -title "36-BigWednesday Plan" -projection plan

  36-BigWednesdayPlan-s1 #scraps

  36-BigWednesdayPlan-s2

endmap



So what it is looking like, if the contributory maps are all derived from
scraps (or maps in turn derived from scraps), then the altitude range is
correct.

But if there is a map that is centerline derived (ie has no scraps) then the
altitude minima is set to zero.



One other thing.

All my tests so far use survex for loop closure.  I have not tried using
Therion loop closure.

And all my files are native Therion files - no survex imports.

I checked and I can confirm what Bruce is saying. If you don't include
centerline in map, the altitude range is correct.



If you hide the centerline in the layout (leaving it in the map) the
altitude range keeps starting from 0 m.

Or maybe I am not understanding what you mean by including the centreline in
the map. I turned off the centreline using 'symbol-hide line survey'. If I
comment that out in my layout then the centreline is drawn in the map, but
my altitude range still covers only the range of my scraps.

examples below regardless of presence of previews or offsets.

What does seem to control whether the altitudes start at zero meters is
whether the map definition includes a survey centerline.

If part of map definition includes a survey centerline, then altitudes are
coloured from zero meters to survey maxima (a bug?).

If map definition has no survey centerline as part of it's definition, then
coloured from survey minima to survey maxima (correct behaviour).

Hence I find this behaviour manifests in maps in progress, but when they are
finished and I (usually) turn off the centerline maps, they correct
themselves.

[Therion] Compiling Therion projects from Notepad++

2015-01-08 Thread Bruce
Thanks Footleg

(Without actually trying it) just making sure I understand a distinction
between 'your Ctrl+T' approach and 'my Ctrl+shift+X' approach, using
NotePad++ as described on the wiki page below...

-Ctrl+T runs Therion compiler on the currently active file, directly without
invoking XTherion. (?)
-Ctrl+shift+X opens a new instance of Xtherion with the currently active
file.

If so it might be a good idea to edit the page to explain that these are two
methods of cracking similar or complimentary nuts.
