Hi,

this has been implemented in 9a30b34
<https://github.com/therion/therion/commit/9a30b34a9c9ed54e8c651c2edbb8ef7573e83b6f>.
You need to get the windows installer from GitHub now, as we no longer
build windows binaries on our server. The new links are in the Downloads
section of the therion web page.

I tried using the ‘smooth-shading off’ option in the hope that the altitude

This is intended, because even if you don't use smooth shading for scraps,
most of the scraps colored by altitude get colors which are not found on
the old-style discrete color legend. So a smooth color legend should be
useful. Do you see a use case for having a discrete legend in this case?

Cheers
Martin
