Stacho, and Therion users Tried to break lookups for dates, maps and scraps today, with only a small amount of success! Actually, it seems a pretty stable and useful feature. I have documented how I think they work in the wiki https://therion.speleo.sk/wiki/examples#colour_scales_-_lookups 1. I have a question about using - [0 0 0] "undated surveys" in a lookup list. As I noted in the wiki, the dash '-' seems to select all undated surveys if placed at the bottom of the list, and all surveys if placed at the top of the list. This would seem to suggest the legend colours are constructed the same as scrap drawings; items at the top of the list overwrite those below them, if there is any clash. It seems to be a useful and predictable behaviour, if that is actually the case - have I got it right? 2. Specifying colour with map selection. I could not get this to work at all, although have only tried it with one project so far. I have tried both spellings; select map1 -color [100 0 0] select map1 -colour [100 0 0] Both are silently ignored. I have checked to make sure there are no colour map-fig statements hidden in the project, as I assume these might override the map selection (although having 'select map colour' override 'colour map-fg xxxx' would be a nice behaviour). What might I be doing wrong here? 3. And lastly a minor comment. The default date colour legend looks like this. . with the most recent dates at the bottom. As with altitudes (which has already being adjusted) my preference would be to have the recent dates sort to the top (the colours - red for recent is good). I could make custom lookups of course, but I think the default should match what most people prefer. What do people think? Regards Bruce
