bad scrap overlay
by Naomi 01 Apr '16

01 Apr '16

Hi, I am new therion user - hello everybody :-) I have a "bad scrap overlay" problem in a cave passage. The setting is very simple: two galleries (one scrap for each), with a junction at the ceilling. The lox file shows everything ok However, my plan pdf map shows the bottom gallery at the top (should be the opposite !). The problem remains with and without joining the scraps. I can't figure why. Could anybody help ? Have you got an idea of the possible reasons for bad scrap overlay ? thanks in advance Naomi

Hi all, as I may say, Martin B. and Stacho are still alive, bus very busy. I spoke with Martin B. few minutes ago. Therion is not only on Stacho's computer, but on Martin B.'s too. So don't worry. They are testing Github repo too. Martin B. told me, that after they'll finish a project for their work they will prepare new release. So don't lose hope, please. :) m.s.

Recovering data marked as sent from DistoX2
by Andrew Atkinson 25 Mar '16

25 Mar '16

Hello Not strictly Therion, but.. Somewhere I think I have read about how to get data from a DistoX2 once it has been marked as sent it is still in the memory. (My pelicase broke on the way out of the cave and the pda was flooded, luckily the Distox2 survived) So I can see the data in the DistoX, so I can just type it in manually, but it would be better to get it off electronically, then all I have lost is the diagrams, which where not much, it is a grim bit of cave to survey. Anyway if anyone knows how to get the data to be resent, I would be most data, my web searching skills do not seem to be coming up with an answer thanks Andrew

Survex Terrain model problem
by Владимир Георгиев 25 Mar '16

25 Mar '16

Hi I was experimenting with the .3d model exported from Therion to Survex. The Survex viewer (Aven) has an option to display the terrain too. When I go to View > Terrain I get an error "No coordinate system specified in survey data". In the Therion data there is a coordinate system specified, fixed station as well as terrain data and it is displayed in Lox. Has anyone seen this error or had success in showing the terrain in Survex? Vladimir

If you are modifying the therion .3d export then it would also be nice to have the loop closure error and date explored (or date surveyed) exported with both model and map exports. Bruce Sent from my Samsung device, hence the typo's

Although if you save to the device and have a memory card installed, ptopo automatically backs up to the card (twice) so you have two physical chances that your data might be ok. (As compared to one if you save to card)But if you start a new file ptopo still uses the same backup names, so you have to manually copy the old file to the card.This method worked for us when our device drowned.

Worth checking the memory card anyway (including with a file recover utility) because PocketTopo saves temporary backup files to any memory cards in the PDA during use. I think these get cleaned up when you save the project, but a recovery utility may find the files still there.

Re: [Therion] Therion Tutorial Update - Data Structures and Layouts
by Bruce Mutton 22 Mar '16

22 Mar '16

Yes, I think so. What I had tried to do was combine several outputs into one file by doing something like this: select <map1>export <plan pdf of map1>select <map2>export <plan pdf of map2> As I understand this now, this still would not work as I intended. But it would generate two PDFs both containing both map1 an map2

Therion Tutorial Update - Data Structures and Layouts
by Bruce 22 Mar '16

22 Mar '16

Footleg Had a quick skim through your tutorial today, one thing stood out as incorrect. "Note that you can only use one select statement in a thconfig file, and it does not matter where in the file you put it. I always put it at the top so it is easy to spot. If you put in select statements for more than one map then only one of them will be used." We routinely use thconfig files with multiple select statements for maps with the same projection. All of the maps are produced in the resulting pdf (and other) files. As with Therion's typical treatment of lists of drawn entities, the first map listed is in the top layer of the pdf, and the last map is in the bottom layer. Bruce =
