Wookey

All the projected elevation objects (scraps, maps and exports) need to have
the projection angle specified.  Specifying nothing will result in a
projection looking at bearing zero (north).

 

ie export map -proj [elevation 042 deg] -layout local -o "elv.pdf"

or export map -proj [elevation 042] -layout local -o "elv.pdf".  Therion
defaults to degrees I think.

 

In XTherion it is like this.



 

Therefore if using degrees, you have the option of drawing up to 360 unique
projected elevations.
