Working Interest - This option applies a set working interest to all volumetric polygons in the layer.

Auto-Create Volumetric Polygon Names - This option automatically creates volumetric polygon names to all polygons in the selected layer.  Petra will use creation order of the polygon - the first polygon created will be named "1", the second will be named "2", and so on.  Note that this tool can have a prefix added to the beginning of the volumetric names.

Re-Classify as Contour Clipping Polygons - This option sets all polygons in the selected layer as contour clipping polygons.  Contour clipping polygons clip contoured grids; grids otuside the polygons do not show on the Map Module.
