The latest version of terikan.pdf and terikanatlas.pdf are at http://wookware.org/mulu/ I have now understood the use of select and maps to get the layers and previews I want (cool!) Some queries: 1) Why can I click on the internal hyperlinks in the preview map windows and the level labels ('high level passages' etc), but not the page-numbers indicated to N,S,E,W ? They all work on one of the example atlas maps. Do I need to add a rune to enable this? 2) Area problems: See the river (blue :-) ) on the upper half of the survey, 'riverlelvel passages'. (easier on the single-sheet survey). Between the labels 'Arrow inlet' and 'River passage' there is a 25m diameter rock pillar on north side which has got coloured in blue. I tried reversing the line but it's still deemed to be part of the water area. Why? A bit further east the area has inlcuded a couple more rock pillars and a mudbank that should be between them. This bring up the whole issue of pillars inside areas. What is the correct way to indicate these? (There are quite a few rocks in the river with a similar problem. Further easy still (just before 'sump three') the area has gone all strange where it should be bounded by a mudbank border and some rocks. I'm not sure what is going on here. This whole area is a complex one with a lot of edge segments. 3) Currently if a passage is coloured then all the closed loops within it (blocks/rocks/boulders) come out with a double-tint as the colour is presumably applied twice. I don't think I really want this - rocks should be the same colour as the passages they are in. How do we fix this? 4) river colour. How do the metapost colours work. 3 RGb values? rising or falling? I want to make the river/water a much lighter blue but I tried fiddling with the numbers and above (0, 0, 0.95) was as good as I could get. Perhaps what I really need is some cyan, or maybe a transparency/saturation setting. Suggestions? That'll do for today :-) mulu.tgz contains a tarball of the cdata with e all the pics and maps and other huge files taken out.

It does not work now. N,S,E,W movements are handled in only in map preview Window. But it is a good idea to enable it. I am putting it on the TODO list.

We are working on this issue. There are some modifications of therion needed to handle this. But I am afraid, it is not yet possible to support "holes" in areas like they are supported for scrap outline. It is rather complicated now.

If a rock border is closed, it should be white. Strange...
3) Currently if a passage is coloured then all the closed loops within it (blocks/rocks/boulders) come out with a double-tint as the colour is presumably applied twice. I don't think I really want this - rocks should be the same colour as the passages they are in. How do we fix this?
I am not 100% sure, but it looks it is the problem of interpreter (missing support for transparency groups). Have you tried to preview it in Acrobat Reader (v6 and later)?
4) river colour. How do the metapost colours work. 3 RGb values? rising or falling?
0 - 1 is intensity of RGB channels. Regards, S.
