RockPlot2D - Draw | Insert | Aquifer Legend
Use the Aquifer Legend menu command or toolbar button to insert into the current RockPlot2D image a legend that references the aquifers contained in the current project's Aquifer Types Table.
- Select the Draw | Insert | Aquifer Legend menu item, or click on the Draw | Aquifer Legend button at the top of the screen .
The Aquifer Legend button is available in the Draw | Insert drop-down menu.
The program will be in "Draw Aquifer Legend" mode, as noted at the bottom of the screen.
- Position the pointer in the graphic window where one corner if the legend is to be located, and click and hold down the left mouse button.
- Drag the cursor diagonally, to draw a rectangular space where the legend will be placed.
- When you release the mouse button, the program will read the contents of the current project's Aquifer Types Table, and build a legend to display those aquifer names and colors/patterns.
- To turn off the Draw Aquifer Legend mode, click the Draw Aquifer Legend X button at the bottom of the window, or press the Shift+Escape keys, or click the arrow button .
- To edit the legend's characteristics (caption, labels, etc.),
- Click the arrow button at the top of the window
- Double-click on the Legend, or right-click on it and choose Properties.
- Adjust the settings. See Pattern Legend Attributes for information.
Note that once it has been inserted, the legend is no longer linked to the project's Aquifer Types Table; the words and pattern designs are simply stored in the Rw2D file. If you update the Aquifer Types Table at a later date, you'll need to re-insert the Legend into the diagram.
