<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I greatly appreciate the improvement made by Vladimir at the rope
line symbol.</p>
<p><a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.mail-archive.com/therion@speleo.sk/msg05992.html">https://www.mail-archive.com/therion@speleo.sk/msg05992.html</a></p>
<p>With this symbol you can control if the rope section has anchors
and rebelays, as line options. This options are global to the
line: have or not rebelays or anchors. <br>
</p>
<p>Now a I need to go more ahead, I want control the anchor type
(natural: tree, block, etc or artificial: spit, multimonti,
parabolt, etc) in every point and the rebelay in previous section.
I want a <span id="result_box" class="short_text" lang="en"><span
class="">round point for artificial anchor (like the Vladimir
symbol) and a triangle point for natural anchor.<br>
</span></span></p>
<p>When we rig with Y knots and deviators you need to control the
line section without rebelays and anchors, <span id="result_box"
class="" lang="en"><span class="">so that the rope is straight
and the knots do not appear as anchors. (see attached figure).
<br>
</span></span></p>
<p><span id="result_box" class="" lang="en"><span class="">Now I
have to way to implement this in Therion: the easy and the
elegant.</span></span></p>
<p><span id="result_box" class="" lang="en"><span class="">Easy.
Create two new point symbols for natural and artificial
anchors. And use the rope line symbol with rebelay and anchor
OFF in the rope section with Y and deviators, and ON in the
other sections. <br>
</span></span></p>
<p><span id="result_box" class="" lang="en"><span class="">Elegant.
Create a new rope line symbol, where I can control in every
point the anchor type (Natural, Artificial or None, for knot)
and the rebelay rope effect in the previous rope section. I
think we can do this by defining options to the line point. I
know other have implemented similar option, like "adjust
horizontal". To do this a need code examples with similar
option implementation to inspire me. <br>
</span></span></p>
<p><span id="result_box" class="" lang="en"><span class="">Thanks,</span></span></p>
