Hello everyone -
I am starting a new cave map project and trying to apply some stuff I
learned a few weeks ago. I am not getting what I want, and I think it
is because I do not understand the scope of select and unselect in a
thconfig file.
Reading the Therion Book - page 50 - It appears that "select" is not
processed sequentially. It has the same effect no matter where it
appears in a thconfig file. Is that correct?
And if that is correct, then what purpose is served by "unselect"?
What I want is a variety of exported maps showing only the drawn parts
of the cave. Then I want a map which shows all drawn parts AND all
centerline. I defined several maps and surveys in the .th file to cover
this.
However, when I do the compile it acts like BOTH sets of defined maps
are exported. My thconfig file looks like this:
source main.th
# repeated for all the layouts I want to use
layout
endlayout
# produce the basic maps
select MainMap
export ...
export ...
# produce the debug map
unselect MainMap
select MainMap-Debug
export ...
Thanks!
