Welcome to the CaverBruce's migovec-survey-data wiki!

He's using it to document items of interest in this project's repository.

He's also hoping it does not form part of his fork of the repository. ie its not intended that it be committed or form any part of the https://github.com/iccaving/migovec-survey-data repository.

Interesting things

layouts/metapost/connection_marker.thl

point u:flag -attr text [number] -attr code [number]
draws a small colour filled circle with optional coloured text label that is always aligned right regardless of -align
used within scraps
code = colours, preassigned to numbers 1-5, not synchronised with connectionmarker codes
text = string
layout rotate 70 works OK
-orientation 90 works OK at rotate 0, but not with rotate 90

(\numflag{1}{c3})
used within markdown cave descriptions
?related to the scrap u:flag?

point u:connectionmarker -attr offset [number] -attr text [string] -attr code [number]
draws a small colour filled circle with optional black text label
used within scraps as a more versatile and less intrusive way to show where offset parts of maps connect
but they are completely manual - you need to place a connection marker in both the main map and the offset map
all parameters are optional
code = colours, preassigned 0 to 17 or RGB direct entry. not synchronised with flags codes
text = string with a rectilinear leader line that serves as a label for the connection marker
offset = 0-2+ = variable horizontal offset of text label. Vertical component of offset is set by -align and its magnitude is fixed
align = tl, tr, l, r, bl, br of the insertion point. Other align settings are equivalent to r. The distance left or right is determined by -attr offset
-orientation 90 with align tl breaks the label position and separates it from the leader line
layout rotate 70 breaks the align positioning. This will limit it's usefulness significantly

Labels

point [label | remark] -attr level [number]
level = 1 - 6 \
