[GRASSLIST:8365] Re: New GIS Manager version

[Ian MacMillan]

Hey there Michael, fantastic job on the new GIS Manager.  Looks great 
so far.  I have a question about the functionality of the d.rast 
button.  In the menu options there is a button that says 'Raster to 
drape over 1st map'.  This seems like an approximate d.his utility.  
However I don't quite understand how it works.  Say if I have map1 (air 
photo) under 'Raster name' and map2 (DEM) under the second button, then 
when I display the image I get what I think is my colored DEM  with 
shading from my black and white air photo.  This then gets covered up 
by map1 (the monitor displays two images overlain on top of each 
other).

Does my explanation make sense?  Is that second raster not supposed to 
display?  How does this button differ from d.his?

Cheers,
Ian
