Use the Cell Labeling Options button to access the settings which control the appearance of the Labeled Cells layer, which displays grid cell boundaries with numeric values of the nodes listed inside.
! Note that this layer is available only for grid-based maps. These maps display grid cell boundaries with numeric values of the nodes listed inside. This map layer is not available for EZ Maps.
Menu Options
- Label Color: Use this setting to select the color for the labels:
-
- Monochrome: Choose this option to display the labels in a single color. Click on the Color box to choose the color.
- Variable: Choose this option to display the labels in variable colors, based on the value of the grid nodes.
- Label Background:
-
- Opaque: Choose this option to have the labels displayed against an opaque background. This can be helpful if the labeled cell image will overlay other map layers. Select the label background color using the small color box.
- Transparent: Choose this option if the cell labels are to have no solid background fill.
- Cell Borders:
-
- Borders: Choose this option to include lines representing grid cell borders.
-
- Color: Choose how the border line color is to be established.
-
- Variable: Choose this option to display the cell lines in variable colors, based on the value of the grid nodes.
- Monochromatic: Choose this option to display the cell lines in a single color. Click on the Color box to choose the color.
- No Borders: Choose this for no line borders to be plotted.
- Label Angle: Use this setting to define the angle for the cell labels. "90" = horizontal, "0" = vertical, upward, and "180" = vertical downward. Any angle is allowed.
- Omit Zeroes: Select this option to omit from the map those cells whose node values are equal to zero. This can be handy if you have filtered a grid model and wish to see only non-zero nodes.
- Omit Null Values: Select this option to omit from the map those cells whose node values are set to the RockWorks null value. As above, this can be handy if you have filtered a grid model and wish to see only non-null nodes.
- Decimals:
-
- Automatic : Select this option if you want the program to determine the appropriate number of decimal places automatically, based on the range of node values in the grid file.
- Manual : Click in this radio button if you prefer to set the number of decimal places yourself, using the small prompt.
The labels will be scaled automatically to fit within the grid cells in the map. Be warned that if it is a high-density grid model, the cell map may be unreadable unless you enlarge specific areas in the RockPlot2D window.
