Hatching

Interval File

Double-click (or click on the Select icon) to select the name of the file that contains the data you want to display. You can also click the Pick from Vizex button to collapse the form and interactively select a layer containing the file to be inserted and return to the form.

Select the Filter check box if you want to apply a filter to the file.

Enter a Filter Number in the adjacent box. Double click (F3) to see a list of existing filters. Right click (F4) to open the dialog box where you can create a new filter.

A filter can be useful when you want to apply a restriction on a field other than the one being displayed, for example, to show the assays in a particular zone, or show the assays for specific holes.

Hatch field

Double-click to select the name of the field containing the data that will control the hatching. The hatch set that is associated with this field, maps hatch patterns to text strings or numeric ranges. For each record in the file, the hatch pattern that will be used is determined by the value in this field.

Hatch set

Double click (F3) to select the set that will be used to control the hatch pattern. The hatch set maps hatch patterns to text strings or numeric ranges. This determines the hatch pattern for each value in the hatch field. Right click (F4) to create or edit a hatch set.

Hatch

Double click on the Hatch icon to select a default hatch pattern. This will be used when a hatch set is not defined, or when the value in the hatch field is not mapped in the hatch set. The default hatch setting if you do not specify a Hatch is Solid.

Foreground Colour and Background Colour

Set the hatch foreground and background colours.

Colour field

Specify the name of a field which contains the values that will be used to colour-code the display.

You can choose to select colour values directly from the Colour field without selecting a Colour set. In this case, the values in the Colour field must be valid RGB, Hex, or Integer colour definitions.

To map values in the Colour field to the colour values in a Colour set, double click (F3) to select the set that will be used to control the display colour. Right-click (F4) to create or edit a Colour set.

Default colour

Double-click (F3) to select the colour that will be used when a Colour field or a Colour set is not defined - or when a value in the Colour field is either not valid or is not mapped in the Colour set.

You can also apply hatching to graphs displayed on a drillhole log.
