For my projects I’m not yet ready to make the organisational changes and compromises it requires. I mainly want to include elevations in plans, both of which are produced in the same thconfig compile, and have less interest in other images.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Since people have been thinking about it, perhaps someone can conceive another work around?<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>To recap, my simplistic understanding is that using \def\maplayout{... overrides the default /legendcontent (map-header) positioning on the pdf. This means that for some reason we cannot use map-image to place pictures (including elevations etc) on the pdf. Therefore we have to use \loadpicture{_ with semi absolute paths to place pictures or other maps within our pdfs.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Is there a way that we can prevent map-image from being disabled when we use \def\maplayout{...?<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>This wiki entry hints at another option, but I have not made sense of it.
