11
12<ul>
13
14<li>Shift-ed keys should move faster in aven/xcaverot (as they do in caverot)
15
16<li>This gives "*** Singular!!!" warning with DEBUG_INVALID on:
17<pre>
181 2 50000 0 -
191 2 5 0 -30
20</pre>
21
22<li>aven: possible mysterious problem with [ and ] not zooming to screen centre
23- not reproducible, probably fixed or just Ol's fevered imagination...
24
25</ul>
26
27<H2>Aven</H2>
28
29<ul>
30
31<li>clino needs resistance around 0
32
33<li>finish reverse controls
34
35<li>by default put crosses on those points with no legs attached (unused
36fixed points)?
37
38<li>label junctions/dead ends?
39
40<li>colour by traverse
41
42<li>section colouring/selective labelling
43
44<li>clipping - want to select a clip sphere (or maybe cube) centred on
45centre on rotation I think.
46
47<li>colour by cave (and more generally by sub-prefix):
48"aven --survey 161 --colour-by-sub-prefix all.3d" would result in
49lhroute, rhroute, adrian, etc all getting different colours...
50
51<li>check on monochrome displays - especially that depth colouring
52looks OK
53
54<li>Redraw time should feed back to step size (so small caves on
55fast puters look sane, and so autorotate keeps an even speed when
56little can be seen for part of each rotation)
57
58<li>Some way to display all the names of an equated station (e.g. in pop-up
59window or the info panel).
60
61<li>Highlight a whole survey by clicking on it in the tree...
62
63</ul>
64
65<H2>Printing</H2>
66
67<ul>
68
69<li>Check skip blank pages works (checked printps)...
70
71<li>printdm: put standard scaling in print.ini for canon bj
72(work out what's up with vertical size...)
73
74</ul>
75
76<H2>Documentation</H2>
77
78<ul>
79
80<li>Platform specific versions of docs?
81
82<li>Put more terms in terminology in docs ? trip, instrument, ...
83
84<li>Finish off manual loose ends.
85
86</ul>
87
88<H2>Survex file format</H2>
89
90<ul>
91
92<li>flag legs as "skeletal" or something? (i.e. not in the cave passage) -
93e.g. a radiolocation leg from one passage to another isn't surface,
94but it isn't in the cave itself either (it's through rock).  You could
95just call it surface but maybe later we want to use the surface
96flag to produce points for a surface triangulation...
97
98<li>?outlaw prefixes on stations in data legs (as Todd has lobbied for)
99and then the prefix of a leg == prefix of each end...?
100
101<li>comma separated dates in *date?
102
103<li>Allow "*exportall" or similar?  Leandro's point about "maze caves" -
104just saying "don't use *export" is unhelpful if someone connects a
105cave with *export to one without...
106
107<li>Find a solution to Thilo's "." problem.
108
109<li>Backsights
110
111</ul>
112
113<H2>Internationalisation</H2>
114
115<ul>
116
117<li>extract help screen from caverot.c for translation
118
119<li>quotes in messages - translate too? e.g. `XXX' to « XXX ».  Eric
120suggests not in French.
121
122<li>extract --help messages for translation.
123
124</ul>
125
126<H2>Miscellaneous</H2>
127
128<ul>
129
130<li>resolve entries in TODO; resolve FIXMEs in code
131
132<li>Default variance for topofil counter? (currently same as that of tape)
133
134<li>Rather than forming a linked list of components, solve each as it is
135identified?  Beware of issues like those that revcomplist test checks.
136
137<li>Don't split other traverses at articulating traverses when reporting error
138stats.
139
140<li>test diving data with compass omitted (plumbed)
141
142<li>tests for direction - should direction work in non-interleaved data?
143
144<li>improve 3d torture test and try to automate its use if possible.
145
146<li>caverot: on RISC OS now fall back to using 2 or even just one screen
147bank if we can't find a mode where we can create 3 banks [FIXME: need
148to test this works]
149
150<li>Allow extend (or printing of extend) to unfold right-left instead of
151left to right?
152
153<li>ISO image?  structure debian packages on it as an apt source.
154autorun for MS Windows?
155
156<li>control of output units in .err file and in stats at end of cavern run?
157
158<li>flag nosurvey legs in .3d file
159
160<li>sort out title which goes in .3d file for this (if no *includes in ...
161it gets the title of the leafname of this .svx file, otherwise it's the
162leafnames of the *include-d files, comma-separated):
163
164<pre>
165*begin mycave
166*title "My Cave"
167...
168*end mycave
169</pre>
