String section of the Drillhole Cones of Uncertainty dialog

Hole name field

Can be used to optionally select the field in the input file which contains the Hole name.

East field

Used to select the field in the input file which contains the East values for your string.

North field

Used to select the field in the input file which contains the North values for your string.

RL field

Used to select the field in the input file which contains the RL values for your string.

Join Field

In forms that require polylines as an input, the values in this field define whether the data points in the input file should be joined by a line. If successive records have the same value in this field, a line will join the points. If two-factor topology is required, the values in a String field may also be used to segment the lines.

String field

In most forms, the String field is an optional generic attribute used to store a secondary input such as a code. Traditionally, this field has also been used with the Join field to define whether data points should be joined by a line, or strung, hence the name.
