[Therion] Therion 5.5.5 + 5a614ef testing - colour map-fg hierarchy

[Bruce Mutton]

Stacho

Most of my datasets checked so far look OK, but there is one that is suspicious, and I am not sure of the proper hierarchy or what it has been in the preceding versions, so it may be OK.

 

What seems to be happening for colour map-fg hierarchy is:

1.	‘lookup’ colours defined in layout override all other map-fg colour specifications
2.	‘Selected’ map colours specified in thconfig override unless there is a matching lookup
3.	Explicitly specified map-fg colours are ignored if either of the above are present.

 

I was expecting that number 2 to be top of the list, always, and then the other two dependent on the order called. But it seems never to be the case if there is a lookup, the hierarchy is always as above I think.

 

It might always have been this way, but it seems inconsistent that;

a.	Selected map colours in thconfig do not always override those defined in layouts (lookups and explicitly specified map-fg), and
b.	Lookup and explicitly specified map-fg colours do not take their precedence based on order of appearance in layouts.

 

A limited example….

In thconfig:

select MegamaniaBeyondWordsPlanMap  -color [100 0 0] #ie colour red should override for whole map

In layout:

colour map-fg map, with a ‘lookup map’ defined

Output:

Is greyscale as set in a map lookup



 

Change layout to:

colour map-fg [97 86 38] # yellow brown

Output:

Is red as expected, with the select map colour overriding



 

If it has always been this way, then it is not a problem to consider for the Debian release, but maybe later on.

If you will find some bugs or some suspicious behavior, please let us know.  And if someone could test the latest version on some larger datasets, it would be great.

 

We would like to have the most stable version of therion in Debian 11 release and there are still some days left until freeze happens.

 

Thanks, S.
