TravellerMap.com Poster Color Options

[Swiftbrook]

I've been playing around (again) with TravellerMap.com, a great online tool. I would like to print out a poster of the Trojan Reach sector, color on white. Color on black looks great, but not good on the wallet when trying to print all that black. However, when produced color on white, the Aslan's borders and xboat routes are yellow, which is hard to see on white. I don't seen any options in the data files so I am assuming that yellow is a built in default color for Alsan. Is there a way to change or override this color option?

Thanks!

there are options (which I cannot recall); a cheap way of checking I thnk is to go the TravellerMap, flip to the display you want, and note the poster style or something. Need to run out but if this is not answered when I'll get back, I'll dig it out. I've done the printer friendly ones, it is just manually adjusting the url I think to get the right style

You can add a Stylesheet element to the metadata to override any defaults.

The default stylesheet is here: https://travellermap.com/res/styles/otu.css

So e.g. pull up Dark Nebula and in the metadata add this:

  <Stylesheet>
    border.As { color: purple }
    route.As { color: purple }
  </Stylesheet>

Trojan Reach already has a Stylesheet element, so add those lines into the existing element:

  <Stylesheet>
    route.FlLe { color: LightGreen; }
    border.As { color: purple }
    route.As { color: purple }
  </Stylesheet>

Documentation is here: https://travellermap.com/doc/metadata#stylesheet

Have it professionally printed, and it will cost the same no matter what colors you use.
