As Nigel is experiencing, adding photos to a map is a real pain. It is right up there with adding profiles, mainly because the same basic method is used. What I found is that photos and profiles have to be the VERY last things you put on a map. Otherwise - If the map changes at all, especially the size, then the placement of the photos and profiles is changed too. You cannot ever count on them remaining in the same place relative to the rest of the map - and relative to the legend. I think the current "point:photo" object is only to indicate that a photo was taken. As far as I can tell, it has no function for actually placing a photo. It would be nice to have more details in the Therion Book. On most of my maps I treat profiles like cross-sections. In a sense they are cross-sections viewed orthogonally to regular cross-sections. I also never use photos. It is just too much work to try and figure out how to place them. =============== Bill Gee On 5/11/24 08:15, Nigel via Therion wrote:
Hi Martin,
The map-image command doesn't work for me for some reason. I'll persevere with it to get it going eventually.
What I'd like to do is automatically process the photo point type directly to insert the image at the point on the map without having to manually insert the photo image. As part of the solution I'm also hoping to stop Therion erroring when it sees the photo point type that Topodroid has inserted into the file.
Cheers
