Authoring instructions
Modules
Note that starting with GRASS 6.3 many modules can rotate a symbol by a given angle.
TODO:
Existing symbols
- Browse built in symbol files in the SVN Web interface
New
- extra/bridge:
- extra/n_arrow1:
- extra/n_arrow2:
- extra/fiducial: (use 45 degree symbol rotation if you wish to align ticks with grid lines)
- extra/half-box:
- geology/strike_line,box,triangle,circle:
- (ps.map can take rotation angle from an attribute column for each site with the vpoints rotatecolumn instruction; to make open symbols set the fill color to 'none'; to make a double sided dip symbol draw the same symbol twice with 180 rotation between the two commands)
Combinations
You can overlay and rotate symbols to create combinations or color codes. For example:

Other contributions
Symbol families
Add-on symbol packages for download
- Convert SVG to EPS format (for use with ps.map) with the following command:
- (requires Inkscape)
inkscape -z -T -E outputfile.eps inputfile.svg
- We still need someone to write a little script to convert EPS images into GRASS's display symbol format. It would be nice if the same converter could create d.graph drawing commands as well.
