Hello,

I’d like to expand Torsten’s request with the following:

Before we used Therion, our mappers / drawing artists added a „Schriftkopf“ (aka “Boilerplate”) to each plan similar to the attached example.

There seems to be no easy way to get this via Therion.

Could someone help with hints to achieve this in one of the following ways:

a) Less preferred: make the “Schriftkopf” outside of Therion and import it as graphic somehow into the map, with scaling switched off.

b) Preferred: Write lots of metapost code to draw the “Schriftkopf” line by line and somehow insert the legend data into the right places.

Any examples / hints etc. most welcome!

Michael Ross.

Betreff: [Therion] How to frame a box?

Hi

I'm wondering if it's possible to draw a frame around e.g. a legendbox or any other box?
(I'm not talking about the frame around all the map which you can get with e.g. \framethickness=1mm)

In layout I'm using code like this:
\def\maplayout{
   ...
   \legendbox{0}{0}{NE}{\legendsymbols}
   \legendbox{0}{0}{NE}{\the\legendcontent}
   ...
}

Is it possible in any way to draw a frame around such a box?
Or does anyone have any code to get a framed box on the map?

Thanks for your help.

cheers,
Torsten
