[GRASSLIST:5132] Re: [GRASS5] Re: Re: showing only areas in d.vect

Moritz,

Did you try to commit my vector.tcl that I sent out yesterday? If so,
thanks. However, as you apparently noticed, Markus also committed Florian's
update of vector.tcl that allows for more icons. I will try to do a diff on
Monday (or probably Tuesday given my schedule tomorrow) and combine both
sets of changes. I also want to make the change to "sql color" that I
mentioned earlier today and maybe better describe what 'display constraints'
do if someone can enlighten me.

Cheers,
Michael

d.vect fcolor=grey color=none

Any way of allowing a choice of 'none' in the GIS Manager ?

In d.m, after clicking on "Add vector" & then "vector 1" you get a
control panel.. The "fill areas" button will set color=none for the
filling, no way of setting it for the line color from the GUI that I
know of.

Michael just implemented it:
http://grass.itc.it/pipermail/grass5/2004-December/016625.html

However the vector.tcl attached to above mail conflicts with the latest
vector.tcl in CVS which includes management of new symbol directories...

Michael (you probably know this better than I do, but just to make sure):
before you commit your change, you should check out the new version of
vector.tcl.

Is there a way of setting personal favorites from the Pallet color
selector? If not can we fill the 5 white boxes in the bottom row with
something? (nice task for a non-programmer: pick out some
non-represented R:G:B values)
