[Therion] Really bad idea?

Thanks Martin, I had a look at the results by using mptopdf (because the website you linked seems unreachable right now). It seems quite good. I only need to find a way to integrate it in a layout :-) Marco On Sun, Jul 3, 2016 at 12:38 PM, Martin Sluka wrote: > I just found a Metapost example

[Therion] Really bad idea?

I just found a Metapost example generating color transition, so it should work: http://www.ursoswald.ch/metapost/tutorial/Colors.html If you add this code to Metapost viewer ( http://www.tlhiv.org/mppreview/

[Therion] Really bad idea?

I also am mildly frustrated that colours in plan do not match elevation. Your solution sounds like night mare to edit subsequently however. Maybe better approach would be to work on a graded map-fg colour that changes appropriately based on altitude of nearby stations and maybe point altitude o

[Therion] Really bad idea?

I generate my maps using the colour by altitude (in the plans). I just break my scraps wherever the altitude of the stations changes significantly for the cave I am drawing. I pin the min and max altitude used for the colour scale using invisible dummy stations fixed as specific altitudes, so the c

[Therion] Really bad idea?

Hello. I like to have cave maps colored by altitude. I think color is an important piece of information, especially in plant layouts. As far as I know, Therion is able to color on scrap basis only. Because I also like to have the same color in the same piece of cave either in elevation and plant

[Therion] Really bad idea?

I should add that page 54 of the therion book describes map-fg usage, including the altitude parameter. Best regards, Jonny --- Please excuse my brevity, I am responding from my phone. On Jun 28, 2016 09:56, "Jonny Prouty" wrote: > Hello Marco, > > The 'map-fg' layout command instructs therio

[Therion] Really bad idea?

Hello Marco, The 'map-fg' layout command instructs therion to color scraps based on the (I believe) average value of station altitudes in a given scrap. A scrap will have one color, but neighboring scraps will differ if their average altitude differs. Perhaps this functionality will suit your need
