Pierre,

enjoying the Surface with new additions.

But it begs full screen capability:

 

I can make it into a pane, but not one like the HTML pane where I can float it and resize it and pin it.

 

For me, ideally I could pin it, and when it pops out, it would take up the whole screen -- but like the HTML pane that could be adjusted.

If it were then like that, I guess it would need hotkeys (where will it end!)

 

Pierre,
wondering about the possibility of using Surface for what archaeologists call a 'matrix'.

You may get a couple of ideas here - or they may be impossible to implement.

Let me first show a detail of one:



it shows the stratigraphical relationship of features, i.e. which features are overlying and underlying each other.

I see a couple of things straight away --
 

1) some items have multiple parents, but they are only shown once, with a line going up to each parent.

In this example below, 2766 & 2743 are children of all four at the next level

 

2) when overlapping lines are not related, there is a 'kink' / curve in the line to show it not related

 

Dont know if either of those could be implemented?

When I have some time, I will try and create a sample one of these and see if there's any other requests.
