 ''extend vertical <leg>'' - do not extend this leg horizontally, extend only the vertical component of this leg, then continue extending subsequent legs as per leg immediately previous.  The order of stations in your vertical statement should usually match the direction of extended elevation centreline generation. However if Therion seems to ignore this vertical statement, try reversing the order of the stations in your vertical statement, and it might work!\\ ''extend vertical <leg>'' - do not extend this leg horizontally, extend only the vertical component of this leg, then continue extending subsequent legs as per leg immediately previous.  The order of stations in your vertical statement should usually match the direction of extended elevation centreline generation.
