Hi!
I'm a beginner in
Therion so please be patient :)
I'm drawing a
fictious cave in order to learn how Therion works. So
far I have managed to join two scraps from one .th2 file and surveydata from two
.th files. The pdf-output didn't look too great however, since an
underlaying passage isn't hidden when it crosses the upper
passage.
I figure this
perhaps depends on that there was no station points in the
scraps?
This happens because you need to tell therion specifically where the passages are in relation to one another. You do this using the 'break' function. For example, if you include two scraps called 'upper' and 'lower' in your fictitious map, you should do something like this to make the upper passage be drawn above the lower passage.
map fictitious
upper
break
lower
endmap fictitious
Everything after the break gets drawn on a lower level.
But when I create
station-points in my scraps (I have a xvi background so the station names are
created automaticly) I can not compile anymore. I get an
error:
***********
D:\Therion\therion.exe: error -- karta1.th2 [11]
-- station does not exist -- 3
************
Pointing to this
line in my th2 file:
*************
point
150.385 330.105 station -name 3
**************
What am I missing
here?
You need to make sure you let therion know which survey your station belongs to. If you have a station named "3" in a survey named "big_cave", you want call it like this
station -name 3@big_cave
Hopefully this helps.
