Stacho Stop seems like a keyword that probably evokes the right expectations from a user.
Although, what are you thinking that a description of what it does would look like? extend stop 8 7 Maybe, “when extending along leg 8 7, stop at 7, backup and start extending at the next part of the centreline that needs to be extended”. Or would it exactly mimic the extend ignore 8 7 extend ignore 7 8 behaviour shown in the log in my 8 July email, which stops generating at station 8, then backs up, and eventually assigns itself a second start station to patch up an orphaned leg? What would be the expected behaviour of extend 8 7 if the centreline were to be extending from the right, starting at 11? And as a general question… Are extend statements processed in the sequence they are written, or are they all read by Therion before Therion chooses the best order to process them (as it does with survey data)?

For me, adding another parameter to extend is a little bit problematic, I would prefer some new keyword. What do you think about: extend stop 8 7 S.

It's all good by me. The only reason I didn't suggest that keyword is that Therion is stepping through my loop backwards. So a user might assume that the "to" station is the "to" station from their data, when actually it is the "to" station from the "extend ignore" pair. But as long as people think it is intuitive enough, carry on :) _______________________________________________ Therion mailing list Therion@speleo.sk <mailto:Therion@speleo.sk> https://mailman.speleo.sk/listinfo/therion
