>maybe it's a silly question, maybe not: It would be useful to have a station point labelled with some text and get the label appear either in plan than in extended projection.
Marco, there are no silly questions, except the one's not asked. I'm not sure I understand your question though. I presume you have tried, in a layout; -debug station-names This will label every station included in a scrap drawing (I think - your comment below has made me doubt this-I'm just going from memory- maybe it only labels those stations included as a 'survey' within a map definition?) >I made many attempt to achieve this but I cannot see any label unless I define a "label" point in 2 .th2 scraps (one for the plan, another for the extended projection) and include them in the map. I know it is possible to label a station in the centerline file but the label does not appear in projections. I presume that rather than labeling every station you want to tell therion which station(s) to label. If you insert a 'point station-name' in your scrap, xtherion creates a statement line this in your scrap; point 5708.0 1728.0 station-name -align r -scale xs It will insert a label with text matching the nearest station's name. >I was searching if there is any simpler way to get those labels visible than defining 2 scraps. If by two scraps you mean, one scrap for plan, one scrap for elevation, (one scrap for each other projection) then of course this is the case. If you want a cartographed drawing for each projection, then of course you must make separate drawings of walls, cave features labels etc, one for each projection. (Early in my therion days I tried using the same scrap drawing for elevation and extended projections. One must make a copy of the file or use revise to change the projection for the second use. The results are not usually that good so, except for a very straight cave, I don't recommend it-I may have mentioned it in the wiki somewhere - I forget). Or perhaps I have misunderstood the intent of your question? Thanks, Marco -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
