Hi
I played around with base-scale option and this "suprise" is working pretty good. For most of my cave symbols.
But I figured out that it's the same problem with passage-heigt symbols. So may be there is a bug in this symbol!?
When I use
scale 1 250
base-scale 1 1000
I get the same "error" than before. The Frame is not all around the number (see attached picture).
There is no scale option anymore for this passage-height point. So it's up to default scale.
Am I the only one with this behavior or can someone else confirm it?
Is there any workaround for this?
regards,
Torsten
