[Therion] Incorrectly Drawn Scraps
Carl, I don't know why it doesn't work, but it appears you have created a program to produce walls based on the LRUD. Nice idea! But you can achieve similar just be asking Therion to output the LRUD data in the output map, which is much easier than what you are doing and great for that initial visualisation of the survey data. Therion also accurately reflects the Left-Right values entered, so the cave walls follow the centreline at the correct distances (eg where the centreline zigzigs from left wall to right wall).

[Therion] outline only
I have a similar requirement - to show maps at different levels of magnification with different levels of detail. I'm just working on an idea as follows. Within the th2 file, multiple scraps can be created. I based my .th2 files on xvi output files, the xvi provides the framework for drawing on details in the right place. I seem to be able to plot details anywhere within the drawing area, and assign these to whichever scrap exists in the th2 file. So, I am experimenting with putting the walls and high-level details (large labels, etc) in one scrap, but then putting additional details that might only be visible at a lower magnification within a different scrap. The useful thing is that within the xtherion, I can see all information overlaid on the drawing area, but within the th2 file, the individual point and line commands are organised within the two different scraps. I can use then maps to select one or both of the scraps depending on the output scale I want. It even seems possible to edit the th2 file and manually move point and line definitions from one scrap to the other! This makes it much easier to draw - as I don't necessarily need to worry which scrap is currently in focus - I can change it later. I'd be interested in hearing views on this approach. - Ben >> is it possible to show labels (label points) in the preview >> above/below maps ? > > Unfortunately, this is not yet possible :( > > Regards, S. > ___ > Therion mailing list > Therion at speleo.sk > http://www.speleo.sk/mailman/listinfo/therion >
[Therion] Team member who didn't do any survey
Same way as for survey members. Use the "team" command within the Centreline context, perhaps with the "notes" or "pictures" role. From the Book:- team [] . a survey team member. The 1st argument is his/her name, the others describe the roles of the person in the team (optional|currently not used). The following role keywords are supported: station, length, tape, compass, bearing, clino, gradient, counter, depth, station, position, notes, pictures, pics, instruments (insts), assistant (dog). > Hello, > I'm curious as to how I can get my buddy's name on a map even though he > didn't go on a survey trip where actual surveying was going on.
