The strata name for the layer can be used to quickly fill in the symbol, title and description of the layer from a list of previously defined strata referred to as Lithologic Macros. These strata names can also be used later by WinFence to automatically generate the strata for a cross-section.
If the template for the borehole log specifies the Title Edit mode as “Text” for the lithology description column and the location map specifies that “All layer information” is to be used for automatically generating cross-sections, the Name column will not appear on the Lithology List form.
If the “Use Strata Names Only” option is selected on the location map for automatically generating cross-sections, the Name column will appear on the Lithology List form, regardless of the setting for the Title Edit mode in the template. The strata names selected for each layer in this situation will have to be unique for each layer. By using this option and specifying unique strata names, the auto-generation of the strata in the cross-section by WinFence will be almost perfect.
To select a strata name for a layer click on the Name column on the Lithology List form, the Lithology Macros form will be displayed. An existing lithology macro can be selected for the strata or a new one can be added using the Add button at the bottom of the form. The title and symbol can also be updated for the layer using the checkboxes at the bottom of the form.
In addition to the Add button, lithology macros can also be created from previously defined layers on the Lithology List form by clicking on the layer with the right mouse button and selecting “Add Current as Macro” from the popup menu.
The Lithology Macros form can also be displayed by selecting the Lithology Macros menu item from the File menu.
