Elevation/Thickness Points

This command is very similar to the Bottom Elev Points command (BOTELEV), but in addition to drawing symbols and text labels for the bottom elevation of the strata, the thickness and top elevation of the strata will also be labeled. When the command is executed, the below dialog will appear.


Calculate: This option controls which values will be entered and which value will be calculated. If this option is set to "Top", then the value for the Top Elevation will be automatically calculated based on the values for the Thickness and the Bottom Elevation.

Value: These are the values that will be labeled.

Label Prefix/Suffix: These fields control the label prefixes and suffixes, as shown in the below image.

Text/Symbol Layer: These fields set the layers for the symbols and the labels.

Text Size: This value sets the text size for the labels. All three labels will be the same size.

Rotation Angle (deg): This value sets the rotation angle (in degrees) of the labels and the symbols. Clicking the Pick button will prompt you to pick two points on the screen to set the rotation angle.

Decimals: This dropdown list controls the number of decimals to label.

The below image shows the symbols and text that will be drawn using the settings shown in the above dialog.
