Quick Fence

Quick Fence is very similar to Quick Profile, in that an instant profile appears at the bottom of the screen, displaying the surfaces. This fence alignment can be set by picking points, selecting a centerline file, or selecting a polyline from the screen. A triangle appears in the plan view as the cross hairs are moved along the fence diagram below. This displays where along the fence line the cross hairs are. The slope of the surface, the station and elevation appear dynamically below the buttons. The Adjust Alignment function allows you to drag a horizontal alignment point and update the fence diagram in real-time for quick and efficient grid model verification.

•  Vertical Exaggeration: This usually starts at "Fit" to size the fence diagram into the window. The other exaggerators, x1, x2, x5 and x10 can be selected to exaggerate it vertically.  
  
• Drag Action: The  fence image can be  modified with either the zoom or pan actions.
  
• Grid Ticks Only: Turning off this box will extend the elevation and stationing tick marks all the way across the fence diagram.
• Save: This option will save the surface as a *.PRO profile
  
• Draw: Selecting this will put the fence diagram in the drawing with the Draw Profile command. The result will be similar to Draw Profile with multiple surfaces.
  
• Print: This will print the fence diagram to a PDF file.
  
• Adjust Alignment: This option allows for the fence line on screen to be moved. If the center of the polyline is selected, then the fence line can be moved in any direction, and the seams will dynamically update as the polyline is moved around. If one of the endpoints is selected, then the fence line can be rotated around the other endpoint, or extended to another length. This is a great tool to do a quick check of the geological grids with real-time graphic feedback on the model status. 

Prompts

Select the Geologic Model File (*.PRE)
Pick starting point (CL-Centerline,P-Polyline): p if the polyline is drawn on screen
Polyline should have been drawn in direction of increasing stations.
CL File/<Select polyline that represents centerline>: select the polyline
