| [5aa0d75] | 14 | <li>This gives "*** Singular!!!" warning with DEBUG_INVALID on: |

| [0e26b3a] | 19 | |
|---|
| [12d0d1b] | 20 | <li>aven: loading a .3d file with no survey data (or which has a valid header but is broken later) with a survey already loaded doesn't work well. |
|---|
| 21 | |
|---|
| [3ede867] | 22 | <li>img.c: eliminate duplicate img_LABELs when reading .PLT files. |
|---|
| 23 | |
|---|
| [b14f44f] | 24 | <li>datain.c: add warning messages in cases where foresight and backsight are |
|---|
| 25 | too different. |

|---|
| 28 | |
|---|
| 29 | <ul> |
|---|
| 30 | |
|---|
| [7636a5e] | 31 | <li>sort out "zoom limit" - it's not really acceptable on really large surveys |
|---|
| 32 | (e.g. 100miles or so across). |
|---|
| 33 | |
|---|
| [3d5fb53] | 34 | <li>sort out free rotation mode (e.g. "Plan" doesn't quite work...) |
|---|
| [e03199f] | 35 | |
|---|
| [0e26b3a] | 36 | <li>by default put crosses on those points with no legs attached (unused |
|---|
| 37 | fixed points)? |
|---|
| 38 | |
|---|
| 39 | <li>label junctions/dead ends? |
|---|
| 40 | |
|---|
| 41 | <li>colour by traverse |
|---|
| 42 | |
|---|
| 43 | <li>section colouring/selective labelling |
|---|
| 44 | |
|---|
| 45 | <li>clipping - want to select a clip sphere (or maybe cube) centred on |
|---|
| 46 | centre on rotation I think. |
|---|
| 47 | |
|---|
| 48 | <li>colour by cave (and more generally by sub-prefix): |
|---|
| 49 | "aven --survey 161 --colour-by-sub-prefix all.3d" would result in |
|---|
| 50 | lhroute, rhroute, adrian, etc all getting different colours... |
|---|
| 51 | |
|---|
| 52 | <li>check on monochrome displays - especially that depth colouring |
|---|
| 53 | looks OK |
|---|
| 54 | |
|---|
| [a8e9fde] | 55 | <li>Feed back redraw time to key based movement as in caverot? Or perhaps best |
|---|
| 56 | not to? It depends on whether we expect people to hold down keys or not... |
|---|
| 57 | Perhaps something smart where the first press is a fixed size, then after that |
|---|
| 58 | it depends on the redraw? |
|---|
| [0e26b3a] | 59 | |
|---|
| [ca7fb22] | 60 | <li>Some way to display all the names of an equated station (e.g. in pop-up |
|---|
| 61 | window or the info panel). |
|---|
| 62 | |
|---|
| 63 | <li>Highlight a whole survey by clicking on it in the tree... |
|---|
| 64 | |
|---|
| [3ede867] | 65 | <li>aven for MSDOS? |

| 87 | |
|---|
| [2e53e55] | 88 | <li>Finish off manual loose ends. |
|---|
| 89 | |
|---|
| [398863fc] | 90 | <li>Look at using docbook2man instead of docbook-to-man (command is |
|---|
| 91 | <i>nsgmls man_aven.sgml | sgmlspl /usr/lib/perl5/sgmlspl-specs/docbook2man-spec.pl</i>) |

|---|
| 99 | <li>flag legs as "skeletal" or something? (i.e. not in the cave passage) - |
|---|
| 100 | e.g. a radiolocation leg from one passage to another isn't surface, |
|---|
| 101 | but it isn't in the cave itself either (it's through rock). You could |
|---|
| 102 | just call it surface but maybe later we want to use the surface |
|---|
| 103 | flag to produce points for a surface triangulation... |
|---|
| 104 | |
|---|
| 105 | <li>?outlaw prefixes on stations in data legs (as Todd has lobbied for) |
|---|
| 106 | and then the prefix of a leg == prefix of each end...? |
|---|
| 107 | |
|---|
| 108 | <li>comma separated dates in *date? |

|---|
| 122 | <li>extract help screen from caverot.c for translation |
|---|
| 123 | |
|---|
| 124 | <li>quotes in messages - translate too? e.g. `XXX' to « XXX ». Eric |
|---|
| 125 | suggests not in French. |
|---|
| 126 | |
|---|
| 127 | <li>extract --help messages for translation. |

|---|
| 135 | <li>resolve entries in TODO; resolve FIXMEs in code |
|---|
| 136 | |
|---|
| 137 | <li>Default variance for topofil counter? (currently same as that of tape) |
|---|
| 138 | |
|---|
| 139 | <li>Rather than forming a linked list of components, solve each as it is |
|---|
| 140 | identified? Beware of issues like those that revcomplist test checks. |
|---|
| 141 | |
|---|
| 142 | <li>Don't split other traverses at articulating traverses when reporting error |
|---|
| 143 | stats. |
|---|
| 144 | |
|---|
| 145 | <li>test diving data with compass omitted (plumbed) |
|---|
| 146 | |
|---|
| 147 | <li>tests for direction - should direction work in non-interleaved data? |
|---|
| 148 | |
|---|
| 149 | <li>improve 3d torture test and try to automate its use if possible. |
|---|
| 150 | |
|---|
| 151 | <li>caverot: on RISC OS now fall back to using 2 or even just one screen |
|---|
| 152 | bank if we can't find a mode where we can create 3 banks [FIXME: need |
|---|
| 153 | to test this works] |
|---|
| 154 | |
|---|
| 155 | <li>Allow extend (or printing of extend) to unfold right-left instead of |
|---|
| 156 | left to right? |
|---|
| 157 | |
|---|
| 158 | <li>ISO image? structure debian packages on it as an apt source. |
|---|
| 159 | autorun for MS Windows? |
|---|
| 160 | |
|---|
| [4c5c5f3] | 161 | <li>control of output units in .err file and in stats at end of cavern run? |
|---|
| [4b095da0] | 162 | |
|---|
| [4c5c5f3] | 163 | <li>flag nosurvey legs in .3d file |
|---|
| 164 | |
|---|
| 165 | <li>sort out title which goes in .3d file for this (if no *includes in ... |
|---|
| 166 | it gets the title of the leafname of this .svx file, otherwise it's the |
|---|
| 167 | leafnames of the *include-d files, comma-separated): |
|---|
| 168 | |
|---|
| 169 | <pre> |
|---|
| 170 | *begin mycave |
|---|
| 171 | *title "My Cave" |
|---|
| 172 | ... |
|---|
| 173 | *end mycave |
|---|
| 174 | </pre> |
|---|
| [3ede867] | 175 | |
|---|
| 176 | <li>make img more modular (convert to C++?) |
|---|
| 177 | |
|---|
| 178 | <li>.plt and .xyz in test suite? |
|---|
| 179 | |
|---|
| 180 | <li>img.c: test routines in test suite? |
|---|
| 181 | |
|---|
| 182 | <li>install file associations for .PLT and .XYZ (check: if we install a |
|---|
| 183 | non-default right button menu action, does it become default if there are no |
|---|
| 184 | others?) |
|---|
| 185 | |
|---|
| 186 | <li>add support for .KST? Gary says documentation is out of date, and recent |
|---|
| 187 | releases of winkarst have broken .KST export/import... |
|---|
| 188 | |
|---|
| 189 | <li>resolve documentation/examples mismatch for station based .XYZ files and |
|---|
| 190 | implement reading of legs from them. |
|---|
| 191 | |
|---|
| 192 | <li>diffpos: compare connectivity (i.e legs as well as stations) - e.g. |
|---|
| 193 | |
|---|
| 194 | <pre> |
|---|
| 195 | foo.1 moved by (0.02, 0.10, -0.06) |
|---|
| 196 | leg between foo.1 and bar.2 removed |
|---|
| 197 | ... |
|---|
| 198 | bar.2 moved by (-0.02, -0.05, 0.03) |
|---|
| 199 | </pre> |
|---|
| 200 | |
|---|
| [ca51382] | 201 | <li>improve .plt export to include less crude survey structure. |
|---|
| [3ede867] | 202 | |
|---|
| 203 | <li>tidy up documentation of v3 .3d format and put into manual appendix |
|---|
| 204 | |
|---|
| 205 | <li>v4 .3d format? |
|---|
| 206 | |
|---|
| 207 | <li>MacOS X packaging |
|---|
| 208 | |
|---|
| 209 | <li>look at solution by QR factorisation in matrix.c more |
