Hi

I played around with base-scale option and this "suprise" is working pretty good. For most of my cave symbols.
But I figured out that it's the same problem with passage-heigt symbols. So may be there is a bug in this symbol!?

When I use
scale 1 250
base-scale 1 1000
I get the same "error" than before. The Frame is not all around the number (see attached picture).
There is no scale option anymore for this passage-height point. So it's up to default scale.

Am I the only one with this behavior or can someone else confirm it?
Is there any workaround for this?

regards,
Torsten

Hi Martin

There is no stupid question but only stupid answers. ;-)

Thanks for that advice. I never used base-scale so far.
But this is doing want I wanted to achieve and I don't need fonts_setup for that...

regards,
Torsten

Maybe stupid question, but have you checked scale and base-scale in layout?

Hi all

I have a question concerning customizing text labels.
Drawing a map with scale 1:250 is ok. Just some points a very small on the map.
Therefore I would like to resize these points and make them bigger.

For example:
"point x y passage-height -value [- 10 m]" generates the wanted symbol, a number with a frame around. But it's to small (attached picture passage-height-1.jpg).
I add the option "-scale xl". Now it's a little bit bigger but still to small (attached picture passage-height-2.jpg).

Finally I use within the layout command:
code metapost
fonts_setup(6,8,10,14,36);
endcode

Now the number is looking good in size but the frame around is not correct anymore (attached picture passage-height-3.jpg).

Is there a solution for this problem?
Or is there any other option to resize single points or lines (like "point passage-heigt" or "line label" ...)?
I'm looking forward for any help.

Thanks,
Torsten
