Scrap is too large to process in metapost in this scale
I am working with a th2 file generated from the inkscape export plug-in. This file contains a few scraps. If I try to create a pdf from just one of the scraps in the file then I get the follow error: error -- scrap spEntSeries@Riano defined at RianoEntPlan3a.th2 [6] is too large to process in metapost in this scale -- maximal scale for this scrap is 1 : 830753 My scrap is not that large. I found that if I delete all the other scraps from the th2 file so it only contains the single scrap then the pdf generates fine. I've attached the full log file. Any ideas what is going on here?

Yes, I put in three stations, which are named to match stations in a survex 3d file which is imported. Exactly the same scrap in a th2 file on it's own works fine. But when the other scraps which I am not yet using in the map are in the th2 file it fails with the errors given. I can email you the complete project files if you need them.

Is it properly calibrated? Has it minimally two stations asociated?

Sure. Stripped files still producing this message would be better than the complete project. Martin
My files illustrating the problem are my entire project at this stage! There are 2 .th2 files in there. The smaller one is the single scrap which works. The larger one is several scraps where only one is used in the map, and causes the error. Attached in zip. It is not very large so sending to the list.
