Header and trailer composition
To be able to switch between header and trailer sections click to access the trailer
section and for the header section. Each element in the list corresponds to a
*.WCH file that was created with HeadCAD. You can click the check box next to the
element’s name to hide the display. To remove an element click on the element first
to select it and click the Delete button afterwards. To add a new element to the
header/trailer, click on Add and browse for the new *.WCH file to be loaded. The
new elements will be added to the bottom of the list. If you want to change the
order of appearance, select the element you want to move (click on it) and use the
Up or Down buttons to shift the selected element. Header and trailer elements will
be attached to the borehole document in the same order as they appear on the list.
WellCAD Header Editor
WellCAD provides a build in header/trailer editor. Please note that the WellCAD
header editor and HeadCAD are two different applications.
The header editor can be used to load and save header forms as well as to fill
dynamic text fields and table objects with data.
To access the header editor click or select Tools > Header editor… (CTRL +
H). If the active borehole document contains multiple header/trailer elements the
user will be prompted to select a specific element to be opened in the editor.
The header editor comes up in a separate window.
