This gives "*** Singular!!!" warning with DEBUG_INVALID on:
1 2 50000 0 -
1 2 5 0 -30
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.
img.c: eliminate duplicate img_LABELs when reading .PLT files.
datain.c: add warning messages in cases where foresight and backsight are
too different.
Aven
sort out "zoom limit" - it's not really acceptable on really large surveys
(e.g. 100miles or so across).
sort out free rotation mode (e.g. "Plan" doesn't quite work...)
by default put crosses on those points with no legs attached (unused
fixed points)?
label junctions/dead ends?
colour by traverse
section colouring/selective labelling
clipping - want to select a clip sphere (or maybe cube) centred on
centre on rotation I think.
colour by cave (and more generally by sub-prefix):
"aven --survey 161 --colour-by-sub-prefix all.3d" would result in
lhroute, rhroute, adrian, etc all getting different colours...
check on monochrome displays - especially that depth colouring
looks OK
Feed back redraw time to key based movement as in caverot? Or perhaps best
not to? It depends on whether we expect people to hold down keys or not...
Perhaps something smart where the first press is a fixed size, then after that
it depends on the redraw?
Some way to display all the names of an equated station (e.g. in pop-up
window or the info panel).
Highlight a whole survey by clicking on it in the tree...
aven for MSDOS?
Printing
Check skip blank pages works (checked printps)...
printdm: put standard scaling in print.ini for canon bj
(work out what's up with vertical size...)
Documentation
Platform specific versions of docs?
Put more terms in terminology in docs ? trip, instrument, ...
Finish off manual loose ends.
Look at using docbook2man instead of docbook-to-man (command is
nsgmls man_aven.sgml | sgmlspl /usr/lib/perl5/sgmlspl-specs/docbook2man-spec.pl)
Survex file format
flag legs as "skeletal" or something? (i.e. not in the cave passage) -
e.g. a radiolocation leg from one passage to another isn't surface,
but it isn't in the cave itself either (it's through rock). You could
just call it surface but maybe later we want to use the surface
flag to produce points for a surface triangulation...
?outlaw prefixes on stations in data legs (as Todd has lobbied for)
and then the prefix of a leg == prefix of each end...?
comma separated dates in *date?
Find a solution to Thilo's "." problem.
LRUD?
multiple readings
Internationalisation
extract help screen from caverot.c for translation
quotes in messages - translate too? e.g. `XXX' to « XXX ». Eric
suggests not in French.
extract --help messages for translation.
Miscellaneous
resolve entries in TODO; resolve FIXMEs in code
Default variance for topofil counter? (currently same as that of tape)
Rather than forming a linked list of components, solve each as it is
identified? Beware of issues like those that revcomplist test checks.
Don't split other traverses at articulating traverses when reporting error
stats.
test diving data with compass omitted (plumbed)
tests for direction - should direction work in non-interleaved data?
improve 3d torture test and try to automate its use if possible.
caverot: on RISC OS now fall back to using 2 or even just one screen
bank if we can't find a mode where we can create 3 banks [FIXME: need
to test this works]
Allow extend (or printing of extend) to unfold right-left instead of
left to right?
ISO image? structure debian packages on it as an apt source.
autorun for MS Windows?
control of output units in .err file and in stats at end of cavern run?
flag nosurvey legs in .3d file
sort out title which goes in .3d file for this (if no *includes in ...
it gets the title of the leafname of this .svx file, otherwise it's the
leafnames of the *include-d files, comma-separated):
*begin mycave
*title "My Cave"
...
*end mycave
make img more modular (convert to C++?)
.plt and .xyz in test suite?
img.c: test routines in test suite?
install file associations for .PLT and .XYZ (check: if we install a
non-default right button menu action, does it become default if there are no
others?)
add support for .KST? Gary says documentation is out of date, and recent
releases of winkarst have broken .KST export/import...
resolve documentation/examples mismatch for station based .XYZ files and
implement reading of legs from them.
diffpos: compare connectivity (i.e legs as well as stations) - e.g.
foo.1 moved by (0.02, 0.10, -0.06)
leg between foo.1 and bar.2 removed
...
bar.2 moved by (-0.02, -0.05, 0.03)
improve .plt export to include less crude survey structure.
tidy up documentation of v3 .3d format and put into manual appendix
v4 .3d format?
MacOS X packaging
look at solution by QR factorisation in matrix.c more
