Line steps -attr c 4
by Nick Bairstow 02 Mar '18

02 Mar '18

I'm having to draw some walkway grills and a couple of flights of stairs and have just found the -aatr c (number) option to be used with line steps to create any number of stair treads you desire. Fantastic I thought but the command only seems to work if there are even numbers of line points in the polygon. If you have an odd number of points then your polygon is rendered as a red outline, which to be honest I think could potentially be quite useful for strange man made features. I like this so I thought I'd share. https://therion.speleo.sk/wiki/drawingchecklist details under Man made structures. Nick

How to include hand calculated cave length in legend?
by Rodrigo Severo 02 Mar '18

02 Mar '18

Hi, I want to include in the legend box a cave length I calculated using a method different from Therion's automatic one. How can I do it? Let's say I would like to include "Desenvolvimento linear: 178 m" just above the Depth info in the legend? Regards, Rodrigo Severo

Submap offset issues
by Rodrigo Severo 28 Feb '18

28 Feb '18

Hi, I'm having some problems with submap offsets. I wonder if you can help me figure out what's happening. I attached 3 versions of the same map, each one with one more level. See that in each the is a submap offset with map connection lines indicating the position of the above submap over the lower one. On attached levels 1 and 2 everything is happening exactly as I expected: 1. Level 1 - the m1p submap map connections point to it's place over m3p submap 2. Level 2 - the mAndar1 submap map connections point to it's place over m4p submap The problem exists on level 3: the mAndar1 submap map connections change the submap it's pointing it's connections to: it's not pointing to m4p submap anymore, it's pointing to m5p now. Why? Here are the relevant parts of my th file: map m1p -projection plan Grito_de_Carnaval-1p endmap map m3p -projection plan Grito_de_Carnaval-3p endmap map m4p -projection plan Grito_de_Carnaval-4p endmap map m5p -projection plan Grito_de_Carnaval-5p endmap map mAndar1 -projection plan m3p break m1p [1 4 m] above endmap map mAndar2 -projection plan m4p break mAndar1 [4 7 m] above endmap map mAndar3 -projection plan m5p break mAndar2 [7 10 m] above endmap map mCompleto -projection plan mAndar1 endmap To produce each version I just changed the contents of mCompleto as this is the one actually rendered Level 1: map mCompleto -projection plan mAndar1 endmap Level 2: map mCompleto -projection plan mAndar2 endmap Level 3: map mCompleto -projection plan mAndar3 endmap To better explain my issue, there is a fourth file: the map-connection-issue.jpeg. In Level 3, how can I make the lines pointed with red arrows end at the points marked with the blue arrows (as they do in Level 2) and not at the points marked with the green arrows? Regards, Rodrigo Severo

Legendsymbols - vertical distance between boxes
by Torsten Schnitter 28 Feb '18

28 Feb '18

Hi Can anyone describe how to change the vertical distance between the symbol boxes inside the legend symbols? I asume it should be done somehow within this code (or not?): code tex-map \def\legendsymbolswidth1{18 cm} \def\legendsymbolbox#1#2{ \setbox\tmpboxa=\hbox{\pdfrefxform#1} \setbox\tmpboxb=\hbox{\the\legendtextsize(} \legendsymbolwd=\wd\tmpboxa \legendsymbolht=\ht\tmpboxa \advance\legendsymbolht by -\ht\tmpboxb \advance\legendsymbolht by -1dd \tmpdimen=\hsize \advance\tmpdimen by 10pt \divide\tmpdimen by\legendcolumns \advance\tmpdimen by-10pt \hbox to \tmpdimen{ \box\tmpboxa\kern10pt\raise\legendsymbolht\vtop{ \advance\tmpdimen by -\legendsymbolwd \advance\tmpdimen by -10pt \hsize=\tmpdimen\rightskip=0pt plus \tmpdimen minus 0pt\relax\the\legendtextsize #2\vskip1dd}\hss} } \def\legendsymbols{ \hsize=\legendsymbolswidth1 \formattedlegend } endcode Thanks, Torsten

'can't read "xth(me, cmds, ....": no such element in array' errors
by Rodrigo Severo 24 Feb '18

24 Feb '18

Hi, I trying to work in a topo I make recently. One of the sketches got way bigger than it should and is presenting errors like: can't read "xth(me,cmds,5,18,x)": no such element in array I already reduced the file to something really small and I still get these errors most of the times I try to open it. Any ideas on what could be the cause? I send attached both a small version of the sketch that presents the error and the complete log of the error. Regards, Rodrigo

How to combine two maps
by Bill Gee 19 Feb '18

19 Feb '18

Hello everyone - I am sure someone has come across this problem. I looked all through the Therion Book and the online Wiki, but did not find anything that looked useful. We've been surveying a cave for several years now. It is a tough cave. The map is now a bit over 10,700 feet (3,261 meters). There are several nearby caves that have been getting mapped as time permits. They have been treated as separate projects, each with their own map. Last weekend a human-passable connection was discovered between the big cave and one of the nearby caves. It is only for small humans, but it has been traversed. The centerline survey should be done the next time we go out there. It will only take a few more stations to survey the connection. First question: Is there a way to combine the two maps so that Therion treats them as a single map? I don't want to have to redraw over 300 meters of cave! I suppose I could simply add the th2 files of one cave to the other. Is that the usual method? Second question: We have GPS coordinates of the two entrances. Is it possible to specify both sets in the centerline data? Third question: As I said, there are several smaller caves nearby. It would be useful to have them all displayed on the same printout. Is there a way to tell Therion to import a map and place it on the drawing using GPS coordinates to maintain scale distance? Thanks! -- Bill Gee
