Guess I'm misunderstanding group blocks.

Nope, still gets the unknown extend flag error.

Not sure how that would even work, since you start and end a group
without ever having a station 1 (or any legs) within it. Shouldn't the
legs be specified before the "endgroup"?

>     extend 85 left 1

I had assumed you would use it with two separate commands like this:

extend 85 1
extend left 1

or

extend 85 1 2
extend left 1 2

That is to say; you use the scaling number in the  position.
 therefore becomes one of these:

normal
reverse
left
right
vertical
start
ignore
hide


Not yet had a chance to test how scaling behaves though.

[Therion] Extended elevations - development snapshot (commit 6860f82)

2020-07-31 Thread Bruce Mutton 
> there is a possibility to specify reduction ratio for extended elevation
(0 = vertical, 100 = normal left/right) - just use "extend "

 

I have a project that is just perfect for this, but have not been able to
make it work.  I expect I have not understood how the syntax is intended to
be used.

The statements below relate to only a small part of the selected survey
centreline, and cause this error

":\Program Files (x86)\Therion\therion.exe: error --
Extend-DwarfsDoorElevEXT.th [120] -- station doesn't exist - 1"

 

If I remove the group endgroup pair, the project compiles just fine, however
this branch (and the whole extended elevation) is compiled full size without
the 85% reduction specified.  The 'extend 85' statement is ignored.

Also there seems to be a problem in that a group block is somehow cancelling
the station-names specification (whether or not it is moved inside or
outside of the group block).  I have never really used group blocks, so am
not familiar with their limitations.

 

centreline 

  group

station-names []@D-K6 #DwarfsD-K6-Stream.th

# now foreshorten this passage so station 13 appears near to station 2
(the red branch in the diagram below)

# they could have been a loop, but the surveyor did not close to the
same locations

extend 85

extend left 1

  endgroup

endcentreline

 



 

 

If I try

extend 85 left 1

 

then I get the error

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Therion\therion.exe: error --
Extend-DwarfsDoorElevEXT.th [120] -- unknown extend flag - 85"

 

BTW I assume the reduction and the three-station path ignores will be
reported when log extend is added to the thconfig?
