Paul I expect this looks like something that is controlled at the TopoDroid end of the process.
Maybe try asking on a TopoDroid forum?

There is a fixed station in the survey for the entrance, and for this lat/long the declination is 20.5 degrees. You can see an example here, with the green splay generated from the TopoDroid sketch and the grey splay coming from the exported XVI layer: The XVI difference is -1.1 degrees. That's about the difference between true north and grid north at this location on the NZGD2000 maps. I have tried exporting using 'north grid' and 'north true' but that hasn't made a difference. Not sure if anyone has tried generating an XVI and putting it under the TopoDroid sketch to compare them?

Or the difference between a manual declination setting in either application and an automatically calculated declination based on a cs setting? I have not used TopoDroid since it was able to export sketches, so not much help, and have forgotten much of what I did know anyway.

I can view the th2 scraps in Therion and can see the stations and splays. However, if I then output to XVI and add the XVI as a background image in Therion, the XVI is misaligned. The scale is correct and I just manually move the background XVI image to line up with one of the stations in the scrap. The XVI layer is rotated slightly (1 or 2 degrees) and then doesn't line up across the rest of the sketch imported from TopoDroid. Has anyone run into this? I thought it might be a difference between true north and grid north, but exporting to XVI with north set to true or grid doesn't fix the issue. The XVI layer isn't strictly necessary as the stations and splays are already visible in the TopoDroid sketch output. It does make me worry that there's some underlying problem though that I need to fix.
