My experience matches what Martin describes.

Since about version 5.2.8+- -outline in/out does not seem to have affected
pdf outputs much if at all.  However it is still of critical importance for
.lox and .kml

Your example would make a nice addition to the therion projects page

You might like to add it, or give permission for someone else to

I have had this effect where drawings extend beyond the influence of survey
stations (both 'real' and 'made-up' surveys).  Any tips as to how to prevent
or minimise this?

 

The Longwood cave (in the Charterhouse set above, screenshot below) seems to
have a matching survey centreline and model when viewed in plan, but the
model is still smeared and the elevations of the smeared 3d model do not
match the survey centreline.  I assume this is because the drawing is not
'connected' to the centreline by way of point 'survey-station's, and if it
were, presumably this view would become the more realistic 3d tube we are
accustomed to.
