12<ul>
13
[5aa0d75]14<li>This gives "*** Singular!!!" warning with DEBUG_INVALID on:
15<pre>
161 2 50000 0 -
171 2 5 0 -30
18</pre>
[0e26b3a]19
[12d0d1b]20<li>aven: locked surveys don't disabled keyboard version of all actions that are
21disabled in the menus...
22
23<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.
24
[13ba257]25<li>aven: possible mysterious problem with [ and ] not zooming to screen centre
[2e53e55]26- not reproducible, probably fixed or just Ol's fevered imagination...
[0e26b3a]27
[3ede867]28<li>img.c: eliminate duplicate img_LABELs when reading .PLT files.
29
[e03199f]30</ul>
31
32<H2>Aven</H2>
33
34<ul>
35
36<li>clino needs resistance around 0
37
[3d5fb53]38<li>sort out free rotation mode (e.g. "Plan" doesn't quite work...)
[e03199f]39
[0e26b3a]40<li>by default put crosses on those points with no legs attached (unused
41fixed points)?
42
43<li>label junctions/dead ends?
44
45<li>colour by traverse
46
47<li>section colouring/selective labelling
48
49<li>clipping - want to select a clip sphere (or maybe cube) centred on
50centre on rotation I think.
51
52<li>colour by cave (and more generally by sub-prefix):
53"aven --survey 161 --colour-by-sub-prefix all.3d" would result in
54lhroute, rhroute, adrian, etc all getting different colours...
55
56<li>check on monochrome displays - especially that depth colouring
57looks OK
58
[a8e9fde]59<li>Feed back redraw time to key based movement as in caverot?  Or perhaps best
60not to?  It depends on whether we expect people to hold down keys or not...
61Perhaps something smart where the first press is a fixed size, then after that
62it depends on the redraw?
[0e26b3a]63
[ca7fb22]64<li>Some way to display all the names of an equated station (e.g. in pop-up
65window or the info panel).
66
67<li>Highlight a whole survey by clicking on it in the tree...
68
[3ede867]69<li>aven for MSDOS?
70
[0e26b3a]71</ul>
72
73<H2>Printing</H2>
74
75<ul>
76
[f17dbe2]77<li>Check skip blank pages works (checked printps)...
[0e26b3a]78
[2e53e55]79<li>printdm: put standard scaling in print.ini for canon bj
80(work out what's up with vertical size...)
81
[0e26b3a]82</ul>
83
84<H2>Documentation</H2>
85
86<ul>
87
88<li>Platform specific versions of docs?
89
90<li>Put more terms in terminology in docs ? trip, instrument, ...
91
[2e53e55]92<li>Finish off manual loose ends.
93
[398863fc]94<li>Look at using docbook2man instead of docbook-to-man (command is
95<i>nsgmls man_aven.sgml | sgmlspl /usr/lib/perl5/sgmlspl-specs/docbook2man-spec.pl</i>)
96
[0e26b3a]97</ul>
98
99<H2>Survex file format</H2>
100
101<ul>
102
103<li>flag legs as "skeletal" or something? (i.e. not in the cave passage) -
104e.g. a radiolocation leg from one passage to another isn't surface,
105but it isn't in the cave itself either (it's through rock).  You could
106just call it surface but maybe later we want to use the surface
107flag to produce points for a surface triangulation...
108
109<li>?outlaw prefixes on stations in data legs (as Todd has lobbied for)
110and then the prefix of a leg == prefix of each end...?
111
112<li>comma separated dates in *date?
113
114<li>Allow "*exportall" or similar?  Leandro's point about "maze caves" -
115just saying "don't use *export" is unhelpful if someone connects a
116cave with *export to one without...
117
118<li>Find a solution to Thilo's "." problem.
119
[3ede867]120<li>LRUD?
121
122<li>Backsights and multiple readings
[4b095da0]123
[0e26b3a]124</ul>
125
126<H2>Internationalisation</H2>
127
128<ul>
129
130<li>extract help screen from caverot.c for translation
131
132<li>quotes in messages - translate too? e.g. `XXX' to « XXX ».  Eric
133suggests not in French.
134
135<li>extract --help messages for translation.
136
137</ul>
138
139<H2>Miscellaneous</H2>
140
141<ul>
142
143<li>resolve entries in TODO; resolve FIXMEs in code
144
145<li>Default variance for topofil counter? (currently same as that of tape)
146
147<li>Rather than forming a linked list of components, solve each as it is
148identified?  Beware of issues like those that revcomplist test checks.
149
150<li>Don't split other traverses at articulating traverses when reporting error
151stats.
152
153<li>test diving data with compass omitted (plumbed)
154
155<li>tests for direction - should direction work in non-interleaved data?
156
157<li>improve 3d torture test and try to automate its use if possible.
158
159<li>caverot: on RISC OS now fall back to using 2 or even just one screen
160bank if we can't find a mode where we can create 3 banks [FIXME: need
161to test this works]
162
163<li>Allow extend (or printing of extend) to unfold right-left instead of
164left to right?
165
166<li>ISO image?  structure debian packages on it as an apt source.
167autorun for MS Windows?
168
[4c5c5f3]169<li>control of output units in .err file and in stats at end of cavern run?
[4b095da0]170
[4c5c5f3]171<li>flag nosurvey legs in .3d file
172
173<li>sort out title which goes in .3d file for this (if no *includes in ...
174it gets the title of the leafname of this .svx file, otherwise it's the
175leafnames of the *include-d files, comma-separated):
176
177<pre>
178*begin mycave
179*title "My Cave"
180...
181*end mycave
182</pre>
[3ede867]183
184<li>make img more modular (convert to C++?)
185
186<li>.plt and .xyz in test suite?
187
188<li>img.c: test routines in test suite?
189
190<li>install file associations for .PLT and .XYZ (check: if we install a
191non-default right button menu action, does it become default if there are no
192others?)
193
194<li>add support for .KST?  Gary says documentation is out of date, and recent
195releases of winkarst have broken .KST export/import...
196
197<li>resolve documentation/examples mismatch for station based .XYZ files and
198implement reading of legs from them.
199
200<li>diffpos: compare connectivity (i.e legs as well as stations) - e.g.
201
202<pre>
203foo.1 moved by (0.02, 0.10, -0.06)
204leg between foo.1 and bar.2 removed
205...
206bar.2 moved by (-0.02, -0.05, 0.03)
207</pre>
208
[ca51382]209<li>improve .plt export to include less crude survey structure.
[3ede867]210
211<li>tidy up documentation of v3 .3d format and put into manual appendix
212
213<li>v4 .3d format?
214
215<li>MacOS X packaging
216
217<li>look at solution by QR factorisation in matrix.c more
