| * Keep scraps small and simple. Break them at changes of elevation (say more than 5% of expected cave depth). This allows better representation of colour by elevation maps as each scrap can only have one colour. | * Keep scraps small and simple.

| Each plan, elevation or extended scrap must have at least two ''point stations'' defined, otherwise Therion cannot properly relate the scrap drawing to the survey centreline. | Each plan, elevation or extended scrap must have either; |
| | * at least two ''point stations'' defined, or |
| | * one ''point station'' defined, and also have the scrap accurately scaled, |

| ''__point map-connection__'' ## place one of these on a scrap that you may decide to offset. It causes Therion to generate a dashed line between the main map and the offset map. My convention is that I only place a point map-connection in locations where a person can travel from a passage that is not offset, to the passage that is offset. This maximises the maps usefulness for navigation purposes. | ''__point map-connection__'' ## place one of these on a scrap that you may decide to offset.
