RockPlot2D is one of the plotting windows for RockWorks. It is used to display and edit 2-dimensional maps and diagrams as they are being created, and for opening saved images at a later date. RockPlot2D contains its own set of menu and toolbar commands, which are discussed in this section.
RockPlot2D can be displayed as "embedded" in the RockWorks program options, and as a stand-alone window. Both examples are shown in the graphic at the top of this screen.
