[Therion] Sketches on doesn't work / legacy survey

[Michael Ross]

Hello Roger,

Define at least one more station in the th2 – file.

Therion will the scale the map automatically if there are >2 stations, no need to do manual scaling then.

If that doesn’t work, provide also the jpg and the thconfig file, and I can have a look.

 

Regards, Michael.

Betreff: [Therion] Sketches on doesn't work / legacy survey

 

Hello cavers,

 

currently I try to work with some legacy survey which are the original survey data and the final map with scale bar but without marked stations. My intention is to geo-reference the existing map (i.e. attaching the entrance location to the UTM grid) and use it in a cave atlas of the area. I don't want to redraw the whole map in Therion. 

 

I followed the directions given in the therion wiki and entered the survey data and the resulting model in Loch looks fine and plausible. After that I created a scrap with the scanned map (projection plan) and scaled it using the scale bar and the scaling tool of Xtherion map editor. I marked the location of the first survey station at the cave entrance and in the layout section of my thconfig I turned on sketch export. Unfortunately it doesn't work. The generated pdf only contains the map header (with wrong length and depth statistics btw!) and a short part of the first survey shot. I expect the whole scanned background image to be visible and in scale in the pdf. Honestly said I never got the "sketches on" working with any of my old and new maps. What I am doing wrong? Any pointer to the right direction is highly appreciated. 

 

Best regards and thanks in advance,

 

Roger
