Just been doing a little maintenance, and this document is no longer required on the Therion wiki, and is no longer referenced by any wiki pages as far as I can tell. I couldn't figure out how to remove or delete it. If someone has additional privileges, or knows how, feel free to delete it. Bruce

Loch - display divided in quarter
by Enrico Fratnik 14 Feb '22

14 Feb '22

Hi everyone, I report a problem with loch model visualization. On my i7 laptop with osx 12.2.1 (but it was happening also before) I don't understand why the model display is only on a quarter of the screen (see attached image). If I move the window on the external monitor, the display returns to full screen. If I do not have an external display attached I am not able to restore the screen and loch becomes unusable. Any suggestions?

Hi, I think the following should work: 1) use \loadpicture{\pathvar} in the shared thconfig file 2) define \pathvar macro in the 'code tex-map' section of the customised thconfig file: \def\pathvar{yourfile.pdf} Martin On Tue, Feb 8, 2022 at 11:03 AM Nigel Cooke <nigel.cooke(a)bigpond.com> wrote: > > Good evening all, > > > > I am trying to pass a variable to the \loadpicture function in a tex-map code block.

Tex-map code for passing variables
by Nigel Cooke 08 Feb '22

08 Feb '22

Good evening all, I am trying to pass a variable to the \loadpicture function in a tex-map code block. As part of a \def\maplayout{ } block, I am using this line of code : \legendbox{100}{-3}{NE}{\loadpicture{output/ShadesOfDeath_HallOfTheMountainKingLocation-p.pdf}} to place a picture in the map header. This works fine but I need to pass in the file path as a variable. To put it in context, I have a suite of maps, each of which has a small inset map as part of the header. The inset map gives an overview/location reference, much the same as the navigation panel in an atlas. The maps share a common layout block in a shared thconfig file. Parameters in the shared layout are populated with map specific information via Therion data and some variables (eg \cavename) that I set in a thconfig file customised for the specific map. I want to keep the common layout generic in case I need to change it in the future and to avoid having to update it in numerous files. What I'm trying to do with \loadpicture is select the picture that is the location overview for the specific map. I can do it using a hardcoded file path but I need it to work with a variable that contains the file path. I would then set the variable in the thconfig for a specific map. The layout command ‘map-image’ doesn't work because I have redefined the \maplayout macro in a tex-map code block. Is it possible to pass a file path in a variable to the \loadpicture function? If so, can anyone show me some code that would to do it? I’ve tried reusing an existing variable like \the\comment but that only produces a compile error. My Tex knowledge is limited so I am struggling with working out how to set this up. Also, if anyone knows of a better way to achieve the same result I’d be eternally grateful if you would share that knowledge. Thanks Nigel

macOS installation

Hi, macOS users, I just updated my homebrew formulae and installation instructions to build & install Therion using CMAKE - see https://github.com/ladislavb/homebrew-therion <https://github.com/ladislavb/homebrew-therion> Installation was successfully tested on Apple Silicon machine running macOS 12.1 Monterey. Hopefully it still work on older versions but I am not able to test it - feedback is welcome. \Ladislav
