transparent colours in custom symbols not any more transparent than standard colours
by Bruce 10 Nov '12

10 Nov '12

Taking inspiration from Martins recent post on transparent colours I thought I might make my custom point water and area water transparent, or at least behave better with 'transparency on' than the standard non-transparent colours. Alas the code compiles without fuss, but the result is identical to the result when using standard (opaque) colour definitions. In my layout I have, in the order called. Define the area and point water def p_water (expr pos,theta,sc,al)= U:=(.425u,.3u); T:=identity aligned al rotated theta scaled sc shifted pos; pickup PenD; p:=fullcircle xscaled (1.2u) yscaled (0.8u) randomized (0.1u) rotated uniformdeviate (-45); %if known colour_water_bg: thfill p withcolor colour_water_bg; else: thfill p withcolor white; fi; if known tr_colour_water_bg: thfill p withtransparentcolor tr_colour_water_bg; else: thfill p withtransparentcolor tr_white; fi; thfill p withpattern pattern_water; %%% withcolor black; %but with failed attempt at black hatch thdraw p; %outline enddef; def a_water (expr Path) = T:=identity; % thclean Path; pickup PenD; % if known colour_water_bg: thfill Path withcolor colour_water_bg; else: thfill Path withcolor white; fi; if known tr_colour_water_bg: thfill Path withtransparentcolor tr_colour_water_bg; else: thfill Path withtransparentcolor tr_white; fi; thfill Path withpattern pattern_water; %%thdraw Path; %outline, not needed as area drawn is defined by line border anyway enddef; Optionally define the colours (the tr_white not needed as it is defined in the default distribution) !color colour_water_bg; %! forces interpretation as metapost colour_water_bg := (0.86,1,1); %light blue def_transparent_rgb(tr_colour_water_bg, 0.86, 1, 1); and then transparency on opacity 50 Everything in these examples is in a single scrap. I have checked that my code is being used by changing the colours, for example from tr_white to tr_black etc and these changes are reflected properly, it's just that they are not transparent. In Adobe Reader it looks like this (below) (the water on the right is definitely not transparent - the rock place bottom is obscured) Adobe also seems to make the colours and line weights different to the others - incorrectly I suspect. If I run this example with transparency off (but still using my custom transparent colours), the result is identical EXCEPT all the colours are much more intense. In Foxit Reader it looks like this (below) with transparency on (Foxit always makes everything transparent when transparency is on, so it is not really a test) So again, no difference whether using transparent colour definitions or non-transparent. When transparency is off, it looks exactly the same as in Adobe. In Evince it looks like this (after about 1 minute to load the modest file-Evince also behaves just like Foxit, but has a problem with hatches extending out into the bounding box as well) So as you can see the viewing software may be masking (a little) what Therion is really trying to do, however it seems to be somewhat like either almost everything is opaque, or almost everything is transparent, and the promise that transparent colours seem to offer some more control cannot be realised? What I would like is something closer to what Adobe is rendering (with the finer line work of Foxit) , but with the 'rock-border place bottom' showing through the water when the water is defined with a transparent colour. I guess when transparency is on, water and sump should always be transparent to underlying objects, but closed rock-borders and the rocks in 'area blocks' should never be. After all that maybe I need to be looking at the rock-border and area blocks definitions? Any ideas why transparent colours make no difference at all? Any ideas how to make the rocks in area blocks and closed rock-borders opaque to any objects (in the same scrap) beneath them without messing up the transparency of other objects? Bruce

How to avoid that symbol-colour area blocks fills the blocks with chosen color
by Torstein Finnesand 10 Nov '12

10 Nov '12

Hi! I would like to color sand, pebbles, blocks and other sediments as brown. I use Symbol-colour to this, like symbol-colour point pebbles [67 31 4] symbol-colour point blocks [67 31 4] It works fine. In some passages I have defined areas with pebbles and areas with blocks, so I use these as well: symbol-colour area pebbles [67 31 4] symbol-colour area blocks [67 31 4] It works fine for pebbles. But on the PDF map the area blocks get filled with the brown color. The result is that some blocks on the PDF-map are brown filled with no color and other blocks are brown and filled with the brown color. The attachment illustrates it. How can I get use "area blocks" to behave like other sediments when I want colors (and no filling)? Torstein Finnesand

FW: colour by map
by Bruce 06 Nov '12

06 Nov '12

Although the Therion Book pg 48 needs to be updated to state that -map-level applies to maps as well as to atlas'. Bruce _____ Subject: RE: [Therion] colour by map Thanks Stacho That works very well, down to multiple map levels as well, and layers! Makes my 'Output Map Title Override' hack http://therion.speleo.sk/wiki/doku.php/tex#overriding_data_supplied_by_theri on_map_headers redundant. Bruce

colour by map
by Bruce 06 Nov '12

06 Nov '12

After our recent discussion on this topic I read somewhere (cannot find it now) that one could control the 'colour by map' feature so that sub-maps <x> levels down from the primary maps selected could be coloured, and that the way to control this was with the select command. (This would be a useful feature - select a single primary map to enable Therion to determine the overall output pdf title, but have the various sub-maps coloured and labelled in the legend) (And another thought, perhaps sub-maps would have their own pdf layers as well??) Following the Therion Book I tried; select MiddleEarthPlanMap map-level 1 however with 5.3.10 this produces an error. "error -- thconfig-MiddleEarth.thc [32] -- unknown option -- map-level" Can map-level be used in the way I described above? What am I doing wrong with the select syntax above - Therion Book suggests it should be OK? Thanks Bruce

Color for one scrap in a Project
by Markus Boldt 05 Nov '12

05 Nov '12

Is it possible to define color-map fg only for one scrap in a Project of about 50 scraps in several surveys? I have an "all-thconfig" file for this Project and there I have defined a light yellow for the cave. And in the scrap which I want to have in very light grey I have defined this very light grey, but it will overwritten. Many thanks for Ideas. Markus

Projected Elevation
by Andrew Atkinson 04 Nov '12

04 Nov '12

I have a couple of caves (probably more) that could really do with a projected elevation, rather than extended. so I set off trying to do it. I started with one looking towards 90 degrees, but did not get any walls and the centreline was always projected looking north. Eventually found this http://mailman.speleo.sk/pipermail/therion/2009-January/002291.html Which indicates that in atlas this is all that is implemented. I assume it is the same for map? So I moved onto the cave that has a projection looking north. At least the centreline now looks right, but I am not getting any walls. Should I be, or is this not implemented either? Is the implementation of Elevation likely to happen, or should I start to look for another way? Andrew

Hi Laurent For one cave in the Dordogne, I used cs UTM31 The co-ordinates to fix the entrance were then read off from a UTM grid overlay on the digital (CD) version of the IGN map You may find this site helps http://www.geoportail.gouv.fr/accueil, though I seem to only be getting lat-Long or Lambert co-ordinates at present, not UTM Graham -- graham.mullan(a)coly.org.uk

My cave is on the middle of the sea on google maps ...
by cawa sorix 02 Nov '12

02 Nov '12

... and I'm not a cave diver. Hi all, I try to put my cave centerline on google maps, I generated the kml file without issue. But I don't know the espg code for google maps, I tried a lot of them, but I'm always on the sea, I try to convert to an other system, always on the sea... For example my fix point is in Lyon (France) on google maps, but with my kml file I'm not at the right location. Do you know the ESPG code for google maps ? or how to put google maps espg on therion ? I put cs espg:4326 fix P-0 45.775643 4.85397 Thank you Laurent.

FW: Doubt about vertical sections
by Bruce 02 Nov '12

02 Nov '12

…so to clarify further … As the gradient of a survey shot increases, therion switches from the assumption that passages are measured LRUD (vertical up down) to an assumption that they are measured LR-front-back (up down perpendicular to the passage orientation) and then at +-90 deg to the assumption that they are measured NSEW. You can control the inclination at which the first change occurs by adding vthreshold 40 degrees to your centerline block of data. Unfortunately we cannot change the NSEW behaviour (yet). What you need to know of course, is approach the surveyors took when they were collecting the data, and adjust your input accordinly.

I think you have found the transition defined by ‘vthreshold’. >From the Therion Book… “ vthreshold <number> <units> ◃ threshold for interpreting LRUD readings as left-right-front-back reading perpendicular to the shot. If passeges are horizontal (inclination < vthreshold), LR is perpendicular to the shot and UD is vertical. If passages are more or less vertical (inclination > vthreshold), even UD becomes perpendicular to the shot – otherwise passages would not look very good. In the case of vertical shots, UD is interpreted as north-south dimension from the station to allow tube-like modelling of verticals “ I had thought the default value of vthreshold was 60 degrees, but it seems it may be around 67.5 degrees.
