[Therion] Presenting Mapiah, a multi-platform, more friendly, modern and performant graphical interface for Therion

[Bruce Mutton]

Interesting idea.

1.	I can confirm it installs OK in Windows.  
2.	It does install by default in my data folder, which seems undesirable.
3.	It opened a th2 file, but did not show the background image (PocketTopo xvi)
4.	‘Save th2 As’ wanted to save in the install folder, and not in the folder of the opened file.
5.	There is no ‘Save’ button.
6.	Comparing the saved file with the original file results in significant change, although mostly just chopping decimal places (probably to something more reasonable). 

7.	Object ids are dropped (see red mark above)
8.	The th2 file when opened with XTherion has the background image offset form the scrap that were drawn over it.

 

Apart from point 1 above, my other points are not so relevant at this stage.

I am quite happy with XTherion, but acknowledge that a better interface and functionality could become compelling quite easily.

I will watch with interest.

Presenting Mapiah.

 

Mapiah is my take on a multi-platform, more friendly, modern and performant graphical interface for Therion. It's written in C++/Qt. It aims to be as compatible as practical and possible with XTherion.

 

This is the "proof-of-concept" release.

 

It's source code and it's releases files can be found at the projects home at SourceForge:  <https://sourceforge.net/projects/mapiah/> https://sourceforge.net/projects/mapiah/

 

Please let me know what you think about it, if it has any future, if you want to help.

Regards,

 

Rodrigo Severo
