Have been playing with setting up a co-ordinated set of plan and elevation atlas' and have come up with some issues; 1. Where elevations are perpendicular to the co-ord system grid (viewed N, S, W, or E) then vertical grid lines (or positions if you use the default cross hairs) would be appropriate, but there is no option for this at present. (This applies to map outputs as well) 2. Using the 'origin' and 'origin-label' works well in standalone plan view but seem to work poorly when trying to use a consistent 3 dimensional tessellation for a set of plans and elevations orthogonal to the co-ordinate system. (Of course it would not work very easily in concept it were not orthogonal - and keeping a single three dimensional atlas origin point) As per the attached, I have set the atlas origin so that the atlas plan with origin at bottom left is called X 12 in the navigation box, and so that the atlas elevation with origin at bottom left should be 5 X. The atlas page is setup so that the drawing length along each of the pages is the same (ie PLAN size + 2xoverlap = ELEV size + 2x overlap). What I find is that the elevation labelling is incorrect (ie the origin sheet for the elevation is labelled 5 V, (not 5 X) and that because my elevation is looking west, the labels increase in the wrong direction. I think there is a bug in the labelling of the atlas pages in elevation. There needs to be a means of reversing the direction that the ABC, 123 increase in, so that plans and elevations can use a consistent atlas page labelling scheme. These effects are the same for version 5.2 and 0.5.1 Layout values used to get the attached outputs. #Atlas plan origin definition origin 5485 6530 1075 metres #co-ords of lower left corner of 'origin' atlas page origin-label 12 X #label & type <across> <down> #Atlas elevation origin definition origin 5485 6530 1075 metres #co-ords of lower left corner of 'origin' atlas page origin-label X 5 #label & type <across> <down> 3. As I have mentioned before, labelling of the page and atlas labels on the navigation box (as I have hand written on the attached) would help immensely. 4. Implementing the map-image feature (or something similar) in atlas' would be useful. Would need to specify the page(s) the image should appear on I guess. While I'm at it, it would be nice to apply a scale factor to map images, to reduce the to & fro between image editor (for resizing) and therion. Stacho and Martin, as always your efforts are greatly appreciated. Bruce
