problems détected
by Gilbert Fernandes (mailinglist) 02 Sep '07

02 Sep '07

Hello, This is 2 problems detected in therion. They existe in past release and in the new one (0.5.1) - first, minor : the scrollbar does not appear automatically in compilation window after a compile. We must resize the window or go back in image window (and go back in compile window) to make it appear - second, more treaky : I have a problem in the 3 D view model. I don’t know if it’s the .lox file which is bad or if it’s only a display problem. Here you have the data to generate the problem, and a screen copy of the problem. That’s fun because the map and the extended elevation are good. This appear just in the 2 scraps junctions. Thanks for the work. Good luck. I’m available if you have questions. Gilbert

Re: [Therion] Converting SVG files to Therion th2 format
by Juergen Bohnert 29 Aug '07

Hi Martin, I have tried it with two caves so far and I found out that I would be much faster if I converted the whole cave in one go. Dividing the svg cave map is not the problem, but putting the layers together for each single scrap is painful. E.g. if you wanted to do this for a 2 km long cave and your scrap limit is 100 m you would have to do the conversion 20 times for 5-10 layers which means ending up with 100 - 200 single conversions - very cumbersome. Think about alpine karst regions where you want to convert a whole bunch of longer caves to enjoy the dynamic cave map advantages of Therion. Definitely, automation of this process would be a good thing. Generating a 2 km long "super scrap" and breaking it up into smaller 100 - 200 m scraps automatically should be doable using the right script.

0.5.1
by Stacho Mudrak 29 Aug '07

29 Aug '07

Hi everybody, finally I have found some free time to release next version. Here are some important changes: There is new configuration mode for linux users: make config-debian You should be able to compile loch, if you have installed necessary packages - wxWidgets-devel, VTK-devel, freetype-devel, libpng-devel. If I have forgotten some, please let me know. This should be the default configuration. New therion features: * ability to display overlying maps in offset * LRUD envelopes of maps exported from centerline * user defined types of points/lines/areas (using u type and custom subtype string e.g. u:electric-cable) New xtherion features: * symbol themes and translations comboboxes - useful for other then english users * DXF/SVG import in map editor (File->Import) * autocompletion in symbol type comboboxes Regards, S.

Hidroniveler data input
by Vilius A 23 Aug '07

23 Aug '07

Hello, I have one more question about Therion. Is it possible to add some data gotten from a hidroniveler (I don't know is it correct in english ;/ ) to any survey? The question came out of the situation we have now: once we've done a cave survey we realized that there could be quite big relational error. That's because the cave is very narrow - it is very diffucult to measure clino and azimuth. That's why we are going to use hidroniveler. At least to know exact depth of the cave. I would be greate to have a possibility to add such data to therion survey source. I'm sorry if I made my self unclear. Please let me know. Vilius A. Speleoclub "Ænigma" www.speleo.lt

Basic Question : where did the legs go ?
by Ricardo Constantino 22 Aug '07

22 Aug '07

Good Morning, My name is Ricardo Constantino, and I have just started using Therion / Survex - so please bear with me :-) I am running survex 1.0.39, and therion 0.5.0 on Windows XP. I have a little test survey (both in svx and th files) with 9 stations. When I run the svx file directly in Survex I get a correct 3d file, which Aven displays with the 9 stations and 8 legs. However, when I run the same survey (either as a 3d import or natively in the .th file) the result displays the stations but not the interconnecting legs - even the survex log generated from the therion compilation reads that there are 9 stations but 0 legs ! Even a simple 2, 3 station survey directly in Therion, generates the pdf plan view, but only the stations are marked in the file (there are no lines interconnecting the stations). What am I missing here ? Thanks in advance, Ricardo (www.ENTRADA.tv) BTW : the concepts behind both these applications are great - I just hope I will have a chance to try all the powerfull features ! Thanks guys.

Syntax for vertical passages
by Vilius A 04 Aug '07

04 Aug '07

Hello fellows, I've faced a problem when I started to use therion for the surveys we do. The matter is that when we survey a vertical passage (a well) we are used to take such sets of measurements: shot from-to, length(vertical) and 3-5 combinations of azimuth and distance. Ex. 1-2 5m. (210' - 1,2m)(0' - 4m)(75' - 3m)(160' - 0m) 210' stands for 210 degrees etc. And I cannot find out how using syntax of therion to note these measurements. Or should I change the way I do notes. Thanks for any ideas and advises. Vilius A. Speleoclub "Ænigma" www.speleo.lt
