You need to add this to your th config. Tweak the numbers to find what works for you. Code metapost def draw_legend_box = %make the objects in the legend boxes bigger currentpicture := currentpicture scaled 7.0; clip currentpicture to unitsquare scaled 20u; drawoptions(); pickup PenB; draw unitsquare scaled 20u ; enddef; %clear the background of the larger legend boxes def clean_legend_box = unfill unitsquare scaled 20u; enddef; %change the value of inscale to fill the legend boxes def inscale = %xscaled legend_scale yscaled (0.618*legend_scale) xscaled legend_scale yscaled legend_scale enddef; endcode code tex-map \def\maplayout{ \legendbox{75}{80}{NW}{ \legendwidth 140 cm \legendtextsize={\size[54]} \hsize=\legendwidth \input th_legend } } endcode #end of TeX code You may also find this useful, from memory it was how I sorted the altitude legend box too. http://therion.speleo.sk/wiki/doku.php/tips#multilingual_legend_legend_forma... This works for me for virtually all the symbols except for passage height which needs some additional thought. Enjoy!

Does anyone have an idea? Within the layout passage in the th-config file I use a separate legendbox for just the legendsymbols: ... \legendbox{10}{10}{SE}{\legendsymbols} ... \legendsymbols is defined as follows: code tex-map \def\legendsymbols{ \hsize=\legendwidth \formattedlegend } As the map is pretty big the legendsymbols are pretty small in comparision. And there is a lot free space for much bigger legendsymbols. cheers, Torsten _______________________________________________ Therion mailing list Therion@speleo.sk http://mailman.speleo.sk/mailman/listinfo/therion Dell Corporation Limited is authorised and regulated in the UK by the Financial Conduct Authority for consumer credit brokerage.
