Clarification, Request for 2D output header title option
I have noticed that the 2D output titles that are produced behave more or less like this. # if one 'map' for a particular projection is 'selected', the output map title that is produced uses that 'map's 'title' in the output header. # if more 'map's for a particular projection are 'selected' and there is only one source' survey, the output map title that is produced uses the specified 'source' survey 'title' in the output header. # If there are multiple 'selected' maps and 'source' surveys for a particular projection, then a blank output map 'title' is produced. One way of avoiding the 'blank title' problem is to aggregate either all of the surveys or all of the maps into single entities (survey or map respectively) prior to exporting. This ensures that you have control over what the title will be, but reduces the versatility of the resultant output map or atlas, and so I would like to move away from doing it this way. For example you can no longer use the pdf layers to adjust the visibility of the component cave maps, and atlas outputs are not collated by the component maps. Unless there is a feature I have not understood an override map title option is perhaps required at export time. I tried this with a dataset with multiple caves set up in a modular hierarchical fashion, where all of the surveys and . export map -projection plan \ -layout LayoutMapThisCave \ -layout LayoutMapThisCavePlan \ -layout-title "test override title " \ -output ./Outputs/FloraCavesPlanMap.pdf .and although no errors were flagged it still produced an output with a blank title. (Not that surprising - not a documented feature). Has anyone managed to specify a title for an output that has multiple maps 'selected' and multiple 'source' surveys?
