Hello cavers,

finally I got it working and now I also can provide a complete example:

(link will expire in seven days).

To avoid the white artifact (see file kolkhoehle_artifact.pdf) it is necessary *not* to hide the survey stations! As soon as you use either the attribute -visibility off or use symbol-hide point station in your layout you will have a white trapezoid on the final pdf map. Only hiding the survey line is possible. As long as the stations are visible the resulting map is fine (see kolkhoehle_ok.pdf). Btw. symbol-hide group cave-centerline causes an error.

Regards,

Roger

Hello cavers,

currently I try to work with some legacy survey which are the original survey data and the final map with scale bar but without marked stations. My intention is to geo-reference the existing map (i.e. attaching the entrance location to the UTM grid) and use it in a cave atlas of the area. I don't want to redraw the whole map in Therion.

I followed the directions given in the therion wiki and entered the survey data and the resulting model in Loch looks fine and plausible. After that I created a scrap with the scanned map (projection plan) and scaled it using the scale bar and the scaling tool of Xtherion map editor. I marked the location of the first survey station at the cave entrance and in the layout section of my thconfig I turned on sketch export. Unfortunately it doesn't work. The generated pdf only contains the map header (with wrong length and depth statistics btw!) and a short part of the first survey shot. I expect the whole scanned background image to be visible and in scale in the pdf. Honestly said I never got the "sketches on" working with any of my old and new maps. What I am doing wrong? Any pointer to the right direction is highly appreciated.

Best regards and thanks in advance,

Roger
