Where can I submit changes to the source. We really need svn and trac... This patch fixes bad resolution values in loch for computers with multiple displays. This patch shouldn't effect computers with single displays. http://ohc.tx2600.net/patch/multi-screen-support.patch patch -p0 loch/lxGUI.cxx < multi-screen-support.patch Steelwool

Quick one: how can I add the degree symbol (°) to the map-comment? If I use 42°07'40''W. I get 42.07'40''W thanks.

Label in North arrow
by Carlos \"Guâno\" Grohmann 10 Oct '06

10 Oct '06

I want my north arrow to have a label, like "Magnetic north". So I went looking in the Therion source code and came out with this code, which is a mix of the defs for northarrow_SKBB and northarrow_SKBB_old: def s_northarrow_SKBB (expr rot) = T:=identity scaled 0.7 rotated -rot; begingroup interim defaultscale:=1; label("Norte_Geografico", (0,-1cm)); endgroup; thdraw (-.5cm,-1cm)--(0,1.5cm)--(.5cm,-1cm)--(0,-.5cm)--cycle; thfill (-.5cm,-1cm)--(0,1.5cm)--(0,-.5cm)--cycle; enddef; My problem here is with the space between the two words. If I use a space, I get something like a tilde (~), if I use underscore, I get an ', and so on. What should I use in this code to get a plain space between the words? Thanks -- +-----------------------------------------------------------+ Carlos Henrique Grohmann - Guano Geologist M.Sc - Doctorate Student at IGc-USP - Brazil Linux User #89721 - carlos dot grohmann at gmail dot com +-----------------------------------------------------------+ _________________ "Good morning, doctors.

I have created an IRC channel for therion discussions - either about drawing or development. I don't know how many other users find IRC useful, but I know I do. It is #therion at irc.oftc.net Come and hang out - it's quite lonely at the moment :-) Wookey -- Aleph One Ltd, Bottisham, CAMBRIDGE, CB5 9BA, UK Tel +44 (0) 1223 811679 work: http://www.aleph1.co.uk/ play: http://wookware.org/

team names in svx files
by Carlos \"Guâno\" Grohmann 09 Oct '06

09 Oct '06

I noticed that when I use Survex .3d files as the centreline for my caves in Therion, I don't get the team names in the PDF map. Is this a bug? a feature? any workaround? thanks -- +-----------------------------------------------------------+ Carlos Henrique Grohmann - Guano Geologist M.Sc - Doctorate Student at IGc-USP - Brazil Linux User #89721 - carlos dot grohmann at gmail dot com +-----------------------------------------------------------+ _________________ "Good morning, doctors.

map-comments and team names order
by Carlos \"Guâno\" Grohmann 09 Oct '06

09 Oct '06

Hello In my thconfig file, I have two lines of "map-comment", the first with the location of the cave and the second with the coordinates, but in the pdf map, I just get the second line. Does Therion con handle only one line of comments in the layout? And why the order of the tesm names is not the same as in the centerline file? tks -- +-----------------------------------------------------------+ Carlos Henrique Grohmann - Guano Geologist M.Sc - Doctorate Student at IGc-USP - Brazil Linux User #89721 - carlos dot grohmann at gmail dot com +-----------------------------------------------------------+ _________________ "Good morning, doctors.
