Hi Tarquin, I am afraid, I do not understand your problem. If extend algorithm follows stations in order 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8 - 9 and you specify extend vertical 3 extend right 8 Then stations 3,4,5,6,7 should be placed vertical and 8,9 on the right. I have tested it and in my example, i

Stacho, I am wondering if there is a fault in all the other "extend" options, rather than this problem being specific to "extend ignore". extend vertical 3 # everything after station *2* is vertical extend right 8 # everything after station *7* is extended to the right It seems like your "extend

Hi Tarquin, You need to also change your .th file so the extend left/right are correct for your flip horizontal. If it’s for outputting at a higher level, then you can do that at higher level, however as your flip in .th2 has been at lower level, probably best to extend left right in your .th

Hi all, With extended elevations, you might want to show only the most important parts, like pitches, while showing long passages as a shorter distance with a break symbol. Imagine a cave with an initial pitch, a long passage, and a final pitch, where the extended elevation should concentrate on t
