Dear therion mailing list,
Does anyone know how to remove the lines that appear between survey
stations used for surveying around surface features?
I ran survey legs around dolines and pools, leading to a main entrance
where the actual cave starts. I used the "flags surface" command to remove
the surface stations from the main cave station sequence and added them to
their own "surface features" scrap in the drawing, but when the drawing
gets compiled, these surface stations are all joined by densely dotted
lines, as opposed to the short survey lines between cave survey stations
indicating the direction of the legs.
Apart from this, the surface feature drawing all works pretty well, using
the line type "border" with "clip" set to "off". I'd like the temporary
survey station symbols to remain, so they appear as the stations within the
cave.
Best,
David E

Hi David,

symbol-hide group surface-centreline
This also hides the stations. If you want those, you need to put them back:
symbol-show point station
And then you can also hide the temporary stations, so only the
fixed/painted/permanent stations are shown:
symbol-hide point station:temporary
The statements are interpreted in the order you write them, so put the
most generic one first, then get more specific. As far as I remember,
you cannot choose to show/hide only surface temporary stations while
showing only the underground painted ones (you can only do the whole
surface centreline at once, while the stations relate to surface and
underground at the same time). Maybe others know of a way though.

I like slope for dolines, and pitch for cliffs.

An option could be to overwrite the symbols with empty metapost ones

Hi,
it took some time, but now \loadpicture supports both relative and
absolute paths. Check out the devel branch (not yet merged to master):
Source: https://github.com/therion/therion/tree/devel
Windows installer:

Best wishes
