� From the Display Settings list click on the Title part to select it.
� Click the Text button next and enter the new log name into the appearing edit
box.
Note:
1.3.2.4 Positioning Logs
Logs can be linked to each other to act as a data server or they are used in
calculations. Therefore each log title is used as a unique identifier for that
particular log. You cannot have two or more logs with the same title within the same
borehole document even if they differ in log type. WellCAD changes the log title
automatically and adds an extension like #1 or #2 to avoid having twice the same
log title. If you would like to display equal names please display the Comment and
hide the Title display.
Log titles can be renamed automatically during file import or when applying a
template using an Alias Template. You will learn about Alias Templates in the
corresponding chapter.
You can force log names to be renamed using the Alias Table (see 1.4.2 Data
Import). From the Edit menu select Rename Logs. An editor window will open
listing all current log titles of your borehole document in the left column. Click into
the corresponding cell in the New Name column to set a new title. Click the Use
Aliases button to change the names according to the currently loaded (Tools >
Options > Alias Table) Alias Table.
Logs can be positioned anywhere on the borehole document. They may also overlap
each other. You can enter a left and right position value in the Main, Base and
Title Settings dialog box or you can use your mouse pointer to interactively change
the position and width of a log.
You can switch on a snap option to allow a more convenient positioning of logs. In
combination with the short cuts from the Layout Toolbar you should be able to
arrange logs very fast.
Snap
To enable the snap option:
� Select Ruler bar settings… from the View menu.
Or
� Ensure the Ruler Bar is displayed at the top of your borehole window.
� If not: Select the Ruler Bar option from the View menu.
