RockWorks/2004 Revision History
2005/Q3 (07/01/05-09/31/05)
(19) Improvement (09/14/05/MIW):
The surface lighting/shadowing within RockPlot/3D surfaces has been improved.
(18) Cosmetic (09/14/05/MIW):
The RockPlot/3D program now defaults to 64 color-levels when plotting surfaces.
(17) Improvement (09/14/05/MIW):
The RockPlot/2D / DXF export program now exports filled circles.
(16) Bug Fix (09/14/05/JPR):
The Borehole Manager / Map / Adjust Coordinates options now work properly. In the previous version, the
Longitude/Latitude -> UTM program would not properly refresh the listing
(i.e. the user would need to select another borehole and then re-select the
previous borehole to see the changes), and the Jeffersonian program displayed
the wrong menu.
(15) Improvement
(08/03/05/JPR): The Grafix / 3D-Utilities /
Surface-Object now includes extensive help messages.
(14) Bug Fix (08/01/05/JPR):
The Grafix / 3D-Utilities / Surface-Object program no
longer bombs with selected Cylinder commands.
(13) Bug Fix (08/01/05/JPR):
The File / Export / Geological-Utilities / ASCII program now works
correctly. The previous version would export the data from the survey
table.
(12) Bug Fix (07/29/05/MIW):
The Geological-Utilities / Coords /
UTM->Longitude\Latitude program now works correctly (it no longer generates
an undefined integer error).
(11) Improvement
(07/25/05/MIW): The RockPlot/3D program now plots color-filled contour
intervals as discrete bands rather than gradational changes. This
provides a much sharper look to the contouring that is similar to the
RockPlot2D maps.
(10) Bug Fix (07/25/05/MIW): The
Borehole Manager / Stratigraphy / Export / ASCII XYZ File program now works
correctly.
(9) New Feature (07/25/05/MIW): When
exporting triangles, the RockPlot/3D / File / Export / ESRI program now exports
the corresponding grid and model node values. The previous version would
export just the color value.
(8) Improvement (07/25/05/MIW): The
RockPlot/3D program now plots triangles much faster. This means that
zooming, panning, and rotations will appear faster after any changes to the
scene have been compiled. Alas, this speed improvement has been made as
the cost of memory.
(7) New Feature
(07/25/05/MIW): The RockPlot/3D / File / Export / ESRI program can now
export Vertical Grids (fences) if they are being drawn as triangles rather then
point or wire-frame diagrams..
(6) New Feature
(07/25/05/MIW): The RockPlot/3D / Export / AVI program has been rewritten
to support 24 bit color output.
(5) New Feature
(07/25/05/MIW): The RockPlot/3D / Export / AVI program now uses any
available CODECs (Compress/DECompress)
to drastically reduce the size of the resulting AVI.
(4) New Feature
(07/24/05/MIW): The RockPlot/3D / Export / AVI program can now produce
separate frames (BMP's) that the user can further
manipulate to create advanced AVI's or slide shows
within other software (e.g. professional movie-making software).
(3) Bug Fix (07/22/05/MIW): The
RockPlot/2D / Export / DXF program now properly subdivides polygons into
triangles.
(2) New Feature (07/22/05/JPR):
The Geological-Utilities / Grid / Directional-Analyses / Directional-Maps /
3D-Flow-Diagram program now includes an option to disable the filter that
removes closed depressions from the surface that is being modeled prior to
generating the flow vectors.
This filter was useful for terrain models
but created havoc with surface models based on drawdown modeling (i.e. surfaces
where the closed depressions are very important).
(1) Bug Fix (07/22/05/JPR): The
The Geological-Utilities /
Grid / Directional-Analyses / Directional-Maps / Flow-Map program now works
correctly. The previous version would generate obviously incorrect maps
(if any map at all). The bug that caused this error also effected other maps and programs that used the internal
Slope/Aspect analyses.
