[Therion] Adding elevation profile to a map

Hello everyone -

I have several questions regarding elevation profiles.  I am not sure this is 
the correct term, so here is a link to a map which shows what I am looking 
for.

The elevation profile is the bottom part of this map.  It is similar to a 
cross-section except it goes along the survey centerline.  

1) When creating the scraps, are these defined as "elevation" or as "extended"?  
I cannot find anything in the Therion book which describes what the difference 
is.

2) How are these included in the main map?  

As best I can figure, I need to define a new layout for the profile, export it, 
then use some sort of image or include to get it to show up on the main map.  
If true, then perhaps I need to create a new thconfig file just for the profile.

Is this illustrated with any of the samples that come with Therion?  I looked 
at some (not all) of the samples and did not see anything obvious.

Thanks - Bill Gee
