Simple scrap, but why does my lox model appear to only show the walls when seen from the wrong side?<br><br>I have checked that the wall lines all have the yellow tick pointing inside the passage. But half my passage appears in the Loch viewer to only show the wall from the inside face, not from outside the model.<br>
<br>Very simple data file contents are as follows. The survey stations are being imported from a survex 3D file. But I am only using 2 survey points to scale the scrap, so you should be able to create any two points to substitute the survey data.<br>

After an excellent and most educational workshop on Therion run by<br>
Andrew Atkinson last weekend, I have finally started to get my teeth<br>
into the program. What I am attempting to do is find a way to convert<br>
surveys drawn up in other software into Therion projects without<br>
having to redraw everything. My current aim is to get the passage<br>
walls in so that I can build various models from my surveys. So far I<br>
have learned enough to get the passage walls from Inkscape into a th2<br>
file using the Inkscape plug-in. The difficulties now come in deciding<br>
how to break these very large surveys up into managable size pieces.<br>
The XTherion map editor is unmanageably slow when I import the entire<br>
cave into a single th2 file.<br>
<br>
Right now I've not got specific questions and am finding my way OK.<br>
But I wonder has anyone already written any help on how to do what I<br>
am trying to do? Especially when to split parts of the cave into<br>
separate scraps, and how to make sure that maps drawn in separate th2<br>
files join smoothly in the model? Some tips and guidance would be very<br>
useful to avoid pitfalls. So if someone can point me at some help<br>
(I've not managed to find any on the wiki) that would be great. If<br>
none exists then I will start making notes so that I can contribute<br>
what I learn to the wiki as an example.<br>

There are I think only 3 simple rules:<br>
<br>
1. one scrap should not overlap itself<br>
2. one scrap scrap should not contain more then approx. 100 m of<br>
passages in 1:100 scale (MetaPost limit)<br>
3. passages should be divided into scraps in most simple places - if<br>
you will follow this recommendation then "equate scrap1 scrap2" is<br>
enough for joining two scraps.<br>
