Use the Striplog Colors check-box to plot color-filled cylinders in the body of the log, to illustrate cored intervals, cuttings, etc. The depth intervals and colors are read from the Colors table in the RockWorks Borehole Manager database. When you click on the Colors item in the Visible Items listing you’ll see the following settings in the pane to the right.
Menu Options
- Column title: Click here to enter text to be displayed above the Colors column. If no title is desired, you can leave this field blank.
- Offset Direction: This reflects the position of the column, relative to the log axis (center), with 0 = north, 180 = south, and so on. As you click and drag the Colors column in the Layout Preview pane (top), this value will be updated. Conversely, if you edit the azimuth direction in this prompt, the Preview will be updated.
- Offset Distance: This represents the distance of the Colors column center from the log axis (center), expressed as a percent of the output dimensions. As you reposition the column in the Layout Preview pane at the top of the screen, this value will be updated. And, as you edit the offset distance here, the Preview will be updated.
- Column Radius: The radius of the Colors column is established as a percent of the output dimensions. As you click and drag to resize a column in the Layout Preview at the top of the window, this setting will be updated. If you edit the radius via this prompt, the size of the column in the Preview will be updated.
See also Miscellaneous Options for settings that establish the font size and offset for the column title.
