[Therion] Troubles with the 3D generation

[Bruce Mutton]

I had put my understandings (about ‘point dimensions’ and ‘point passage-height’) in the wiki

https://therion.speleo.sk/wiki/drawingchecklist#points

under the heading Passage Size, Fills and Speleothems

and discussed an anomaly.  Any corrections or comments welcome.

A bit difficult to understand. I understand passage-height [+8 -3] From water level to ceiling 8 m, depth of water 3 m.

But what it means:  "-<number> (the depth of the floor" or "[+<number> -<number>] (the distance to ceiling and distance to floor)"? Has floor any depth? Or it means the situation if the point „height“ is on edge of step or pit?

m.s.
