<p dir="ltr">Hello Marco,</p>
<p dir="ltr">The 'map-fg' layout command instructs therion to color scraps based on the (I believe) average value of station altitudes in a given scrap. A scrap will have one color, but neighboring scraps will differ if their average altitude differs. Perhaps this functionality will suit your needs.<br></p>

Also, there's no practical way to do such a split when trying to draw on a touch screen while hanging up from a rope..<br><br></div>So I'm proposing a solution: is it possible to split scraps offline based on altitude? I'm thinking about a script which takes a (series of) .th2 file as its input, and generates another .th2 file containing no scraps deeper than, say, M meters. Scraps with stations whose vertical distance exceeds M should be split in two or more scraps. Areas, lines and other symbols should be connected (if possible) across scraps.<br><br></div>Using a script like that, one could push M around to zero and get a cave filled with something like a color gradient, which could be wonderful.<br><br></div>Is that a crazy idea? ;-)<br><br></div>Marco<br><br></div><br><div><div><div><div><div><div><br><br><br><br><div><div><br><br><br></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>
