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

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

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

I don't know way, but this symbol is not in any .mp files in mpost directory so it is managed somewhere inside of Therion itself. I'll ask Martin Budaj what is the reason and what to do. M.s.

Henry After a talk with Stacho, he thought that it would be better not to increase the list of sizes. They are restrictive, in a sense that you have a limited set and can not use anything larger or smaller or in-between sizes. There was a "scale" option that already existed, but was not enabled, so he enabled it. For point and line items you can use this option: "-scale <number>", where <number> is the scale factor. The normal size corresponds to 1.0, but you can use any value >0. Vladimir On Mon, May 15, 2017 at 3:48 PM, <Henry.Bennett@dell.com> wrote:

Hi, I see that more text size options didn’t make it into the 5.4.1 release.

Would be great to see it in a future release.

There is also a "min-symbol-scale" option in layout, which hides smaller symbols. It might work similar to what you are doing in the font_setup metapost. You can hide the smallest items, not the largest ones, but hiding the larger ones is not that useful anyway. On Mon, May 15, 2017 at 7:13 PM, Henry.Bennett--- via Therion < therion@speleo.sk> wrote:

Hi Vladimir,

“-scale” sounds interesting. One of the things I like about s,m,l,xl, etc was the ability in metapost to set xs to zero (0).

Consider a system where you have a full size survey of a single cave. I can draw that cave with full detail using xs set to a x font size. When that cave intercepts the cave master I can simply draw the system by suppressing some of the detail by using

code metapost

#change the size of the default fonts

#fonts_setup(<tinysize>,<smallsize>,<normalsize>,< largesize>,<hugesize>);

fonts_setup(0,18,40,64,80);

endcode

I will take a look at –scale and see how that works in such a case.

Hello, i wonder why i can produce altitude lines in projected elevation, but not in extended elevation. How can i enable the depth lines in xelev output? (grid-command and friends did nothing) With best regards, Beni
