I withdraw my request. You were right, using maps I can make this very logical and "clean" (for some value of "clean"). Each survey exports one map for each "plane" of the elevation view. (Optionally, it can also export a combined map, in case I want to render it separately from the other caves/surveys, such as in an atlas.) Each parent survey exports a map for each plane used by any of its children, containing the relevant maps from the children. At the top level, I have the overall map which combines the plane maps. The lookup then only needs to match those. Or they can have the colours hardcoded. Thanks for the hints :) Tarquin _______________________________________________ Therion mailing list [email protected] https://mailman.speleo.sk/listinfo/therion
