RockWorks 2022.09.29

[Katy D]

A new version of RockWorks2022 was uploaded to the RockWare website, with bug fixes, improvements, and new features. 

 

The RockWorks Revision History includes complete lists, by date, of all changes in the program.
 

New Features:

• The Input Columns sub-menu that is shared by the programs within the HydroChem menu (Durov, Piper, Schoeller, Stiff, Stiff Map, Ion Balance, Total Dissolved Solids, and Ion Report) now includes options that determine if the input data is in mg/L (milligrams per liter) or mEq/L (milliequivalents per liter).
• A new option titled "Isolate Geobody that Includes Point Source" has been added to ModOps Solid menu.
• The solid display options used by many of the RockWorks programs has been re-designed such that IsoMeshes may now be plotted in combination with a voxel diagram. 
• The IsoMesh options within RockWorks now provide greater control over which lines will be plotted and their spacing.
• A button titled "Close Sub-Menus" has been added to the Layout pull-down menu. 
• The Graphics / Images / Vertical / Single program now includes a tab labeled “Margins”. If enabled, the endpoint coordinates are projected outward to accommodate additional annotation outside of the actual profile. 
• Added 'Edit' menu item to allow user to combine two data types. This works for Stratigraphy, Lithology, Well Construction, Aquifers, Bitmaps, I-Data, I-Text, P-Data, P-Text and T-Data Types Tables.

 

Improvements:

• The IsoSurface display options now includes an option to display the cap and cutaways as contoured or solid.
• The Input/Output Models, Cutoff Levels, and Remove Smaller Geobodies submenus within the ModOps / Solid / Filters / GeoBody Filter menu have been consolidated into a single tabbed page.
• The message that appears upon startup without an internet connection is more explanatory.
• If less than two boreholes are selected when using the Borehole Manager / Striplogs / Lithology Picker or Stratigraphy Picker, a more explanatory message will be displayed.
• A concentration option has been added to the Inverse Distance Weighting algorithm for gridding, It adds a non-linear weighting based on distance to the modelling to show a concentrated contouring around data points.
• Added menu item for Stratigraphy and Lithology Types Tables, the option to turn off all units/materials.
• 3D Polynomial Trend Modeling changed to use dynamic arrays so it is no longer limited to 2000 points, and all the points are added at once to eliminate re-dimensioning the array at each point.
• When importing RockWork data types into the Keyword editor you can now choose between the new entry and the current entry when there is a duplicate. The Keyword editor will also prompt you to save when exiting the dialog.

 

Bug Fixes

• The Graphics >Animate >RockPlot 3D File now correctly generates a video when using the Advanced option.
• The QuickMap display of the project image was not using the World File or Manual position settings.
• If less than two boreholes are selected when using the Borehole Manager / Striplogs / Lithology Picker or Stratigraphy Picker, and the Continue button is selected, the program will no longer generate an Access Violation error message.
