Can I make therion put numbers on the edges of the grid to match the co-ordinates used in the dataset? I see various things about grid and page-grid but don't see how to get numbers at the edge of the sheet saying what northing/easting the grid-lines represent. Also I don't fully understand the distinction between grid and page-grid, except that 'grid' shows intersection crosses and 'page-grid' draws full squares - is one aligned with the page, and the other with the co-ordinate system? The thbook could expand upon this point I feel. What I really want is a fullly-drawn grid, aligned with the dataset, and the number the line represents printed at the edge of the page (map), each page (atlas). My current layout is: grid bottom grid-size 200 200 200 m Wookey -- Aleph One Ltd, Bottisham, CAMBRIDGE, CB5 9BA, UK Tel +44 (0) 1223 811679 work: http://www.aleph1.co.uk/ play: http://www.chaos.org.uk/~wookey/

Unfortunately, not yet. It's somewhere in to-do list.

Grid is usual grid, aligned with coordinates (by default it crosses 0 0 0 but may be adjusted using grid-origin); page grid is available in map mode only and shows how the atlas pages will be divided.
What I really want is a fullly-drawn grid, aligned with the dataset, and the number the line represents printed at the edge of the page (map), each page (atlas).
Atlas will be tricky because of clipping of each page. Martin
