Therion export xvi - No station or splays on x-section

Open AndrewAkinson opened this issue 6 years ago • 4 comments

The lack of station is a real problem, as there is no way to identify where the cross section comes from.

Adding a joining line would be really useful as well.

What should happen here? Should the x-section centre point get an additional entry in the "set XVIstations {...}" entry? So you'd have more than one entry for, say, station 3?

An example file where it is correct might be helpful.

Cross sections are just made up of a station plus shots and sketch lines. In sketch lines connect is used to produce a dotted line between the station in the plan (elevation) and the cross section.

Thanks, perfect. Should be able to fix this in the next version.

This still seems to be an issue? Makes using cross-sections very awkward
