Combining logs in tracks
Logs can occupy either separate tracks in the main display or can share tracks to save work space. GeoSyn enables you to specify the logs to display in up to ten tracks and displays an unlimited number of logs in any track. The same log can be repeated in multiple tracks.
With a left and right log defined in the same track, select cross over options and adjust the horizontal placement of the logs to infill areas where the two logs overlap.
Save composite log layouts with different configurations as templates with a .tpl extension in the GeoSyn Working directory.
To combine logs in tracks:
- In the depth page, right-click the log to modify and select Log properties from the shortcut menu.
The Well Properties: Log properties
dialog box appears.
- In the Properties common to all logs pane to the bottom right of the dialog, beside the Multiple logs / track option, click Edit.
The Multi-Log per Track Template
dialog box appears.
- For the Populate tracks radio buttons, select either automatically by type (sonic, density, etc), or manually by name (Delta-T, Bulk Density, etc.) depending on the degree of control you want over which logs appear, and then click Edit.
The Multi-log per track layout dialog box appears.
- For each of the track columns, click the log type to display, and then click OK.
Note: To ensure a log doesn't get dropped, click the All unselected linear logs and the All unselected logarithmic logs options.
The log types selected above are displayed in the various track tabs of the main Multi-log per Track Edit dialog box.
- Using the Multi-log per Track Edit dialog box, for the tracks to display, click the Track tab, specify whether to show the track and select other criteria such as the track width, scale type, and so on.
- In the log display pane click or clear Show as depicted below to display or hide a log in a given track.
The Tracks column above displays the tracks in which a log appears. In the example above, the density log can be displayed in track 1. It also appears in track 3. The column to the right of the Log name column specifies whether the log appears in a track by default or was deliberately designated to appear in that track.
To fill areas where curve readings for two or four curves intersect within the same track, select the check box to the left of the drop-down lists in the Cross overs section and then select either logs that appears in your model or select fixed value depending on whether you want to infill where curves intersect, or where a curve exceeds a given value. Manually shift a curve by clicking 
to the right of the curve drop-down list to enhance the cross over, or type a percentage by which to shift the log scales.
- Type a descriptive name in the Template name box and click Save to write the file to the current GeoSyn Working directory with the name GSTemplateX.tpl where X is an incrementing number based on the number of template files already in the Working directory. When importing the template file in the future, whatever is typed in the Template name box appears as the file description.
- Click Apply to update the current model with your changes.
