"\legendbox" "\loadpicture" and absolute paths
by rowena 14 Mar '21

14 Mar '21

Hello, I am using the "\loadpicture" capability in "\legendbox" constructs to include map sections, elevations, etc. It all works nicely on my PC where I am using relative paths to the pdf files. My club has a desire to archive the map data for posterity - ie if my pc dies or I go walkabout, the map data should still be available so that others can add to the maps as they are extended. I would prefer to have the images included using relative pathnames, rather than absolute pathnames, so that future explorers can download the map data and extend it, without having to duplicate my file hierarchy. How can I include relative paths in the \loadpicture functionality? Thanks, Rowena

Import a scrap into another scrap (or th2-file)
by torstein finnesand 11 Oct '17

Hi fellows, Sometimes I realize that two scraps should have been one (for instance scrap A in A.th2 should have been a part of scrap B in B.th2), in particular when it's difficult to join them. It's easy to insert the xvi file into the scrap B file. But I have to draw it again. Is there any workaround here? Torstein Finnesand Norway

Therion 5.3.16 using raft symbol both for rafts and raft cones
by Rodrigo Severo 26 Dec '16

Hi, I'm producing PDFs of a map with raft cones but Therion is preparing a PDF with raft (calcite raft) symbols instead. I tried changing the points to raft but the rendering doesn't change. I'm using Ubuntu Therion 5.3.16. How can I further debug this issue? Regards, Rodrigo Severo

Chris, I was working off the instructions in the wiki. I looked at the loch folder created by Homebrew and there was a file called MacOS which appeared to be an executable. I suspected it should have been a folder so I deleted it and created the folder myself and re-ran brew. This time it worked fine. I suspect there is something wrong with the script in Homebrew but I don't know anything about that.

Install on Mac OS X El Capitan
by Dave Clucas 28 Sep '16

I upgraded my OS to El Capitan which stopped Therion from working. I reinstalled Therion from scratch following the instructions in the wiki. However I got the following error. Anyone any idea how to fix this? ==> make config-macosx ==> make ==> make install Last 15 lines from /Users/daveclucas/Library/Logs/Homebrew/therion/03.make: mkdir -p ./extern/poly2tri/sweep/ mkdir -p ./extern/poly2tri/common/ mkdir -p ./loch mkdir -p ./xtherion mkdir -p ./thbook tclsh makeinstall.tcl MACOSX could not set permissions for file "/Applications/loch.app/Contents/MacOS/loch": not a directory while executing "file attributes /Applications/loch.app/Contents/MacOS/loch -permissions 0755" invoked from within "if {[string equal $platform WIN32]} { copyfile 1 ../therion.bin/therion.exe "c:/Program files/Therion/therion.exe" copyfile 1 ../therion.bin/xther..."
