Enhanced Bitmap Rescaling Within RockWorks16 2D Logs

(007) New Feature (04/10/15/JPR): 
A new option titled “Limit To Column Width” has been added to the Bitmaps section of the 2D striplog design sub-menu. 


This new feature extends the capabilities of the bitmap plotting as described below;

  • Aspect = Preserve / Limit To Column Width = True: Fill the designated vertical column (shown in red within the example below) while preserving the aspect ratio.  Advantage: Images always extend to base of designated interval.  Disadvantage: Images may laterally extend beyond the right-edge of the image column.
  • Aspect = Preserve / Limit To Column Width = False: Adjust the images such that right edge of an image will never extend beyond the right edge of the image column.  Advantage: Images never extend beyond right edge of image column.  Disadvantage: Base of the images may not extend to the depth of the designated interval.
  • Aspect = Stretch / Reduce: Independently stretch or reduce the horizontal and vertical dimensions of the bitmap to fit within the designated depth interval and column width: Advantage: Fills entire interval regardless of the original image aspect ratio.  Disadvantage: May produce strange looking bitmaps.


OrigamiBook Portable from Tiger Direct

Tiger Direct is offering the OrigamiBook Portable (with 16 cores / 32 processors) at a great price! RockWorks16 runs fast and looks great on this machine albeit a bit bulky.

The gap between the monitors is a bit obnoxious, but the processor speed makes up for it …
