It was not clear which passage was above or below.  They were all mashed together as if they were one layer.  A true offset was not, in my judgement, necessary.

There is a way you may use to organize layers of maps with above and below:

 map layer_3.map -projection plan -title "Radavc - layer 3“
   ...
   radavc_2012_w_plan_s2d
   preview above layer_1.map
   preview above layer_2.map
   preview below layer_4.map
   preview below layer_5.map
   preview below layer_6.map
endmap

map layer_4.map -projection plan -title "Radavc - layer 4“
….

It means that you define what is relative position of a map definition to another maps which create an overall map.

>  And one last question, just because I am curious:  Does the naming convention of "name at place" extend to more than one layer?  Is something like "name at cave@space" possible?  Could I write something like "AllieMainPlan at AllieSpringCave@BCRPlanMap"?

There is another syntax, but it works only for surveys/name spaces:

AllieMainPlan at AllieSpringCave.BCRPlanMap.x.y etc.

object at name_space.higher_name_space.higher_name_space
