<div dir="ltr">I've taken a quick look, and this is really (REALLY!) useful. Just messed with the colours, not the other enhancements. I already changed the colour of rock lines from snow4 to yellow by editing (and uncommenting) that line in the ini file. I could not tell my rock lines from my survey lines rendered in the background sketch imported from PocketTopo. Some of the other colours are maybe a little too dark so I will experiment more to brighten them up and see what I think works best as I am sketching.<div><br></div><div>The triangles for station points have another advantage over just changing their colour. I can now see the black circles for the stations positions in the background sketch imported from PocketTopo. Previously the blue circles of the stations points completely hid the black circles they were placed on top of.</div><div><br></div><div>If you could add something to the points which have an orientation set to show the orientation (without having to select them as currently) that would be another step forwards.</div><div><br></div><div>Great stuff, thank you!</div><div><br></div><div>Footleg<br><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Wed, Feb 17, 2016 at 11:50 AM Владимир Георгиев <<a href="mailto:vld.georgiev@gmail.com">vld.georgiev@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Hi all<br><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">There are some modifications that I made to the XTherion and would be interested if someone can test them and share their opinion.
