WellCAD Basics - Advanced Logic Technology

Select the presentation style
for each grid line type
APPENDIX A - 237
The user can select the grid line Style, thickness (Weight) and Color for each grid
type separately. The grid step can be set in the Spacing field.
Pen:
The appearance of the curve can be changed in Color, line Style and line Width. To
do so, select the new parameter from the corresponding drop down list.
In some cases it might be possible that different line styles appear always as solid
line or differences in line thickness (Weight) cannot be seen. One reason for this
behavior can be the settings of your graphic card, in particular the selected
resolution or optimization settings.
Shading:
Shading a Well Log triggers WellCAD to fill the area between log border and curve
with a solid color or the colors derived from a palette. The curve will be drawn in
black. The shading color corresponds to the selected Pen color. For gradient color
shading the shading colors will automatically derived from the selected color palette
(the pen color will still be used for the curve). From the Pos. drop down list choose
whether you want to shade the area left or right of the curve. A selection of none
disables the shading.
The Type drop down list offers three different kinds of shading methods:
- Opaque: The shading color covers everything that is below. Other log data will
be covered if it is drawn before and the Overwrite Depth Grids option has
been selected. The order of drawing can be seen from the order of log titles.
The one on top is drawn first, the one at the bottom will be drawn last.
