Chapter 5 Boring/Wells > Lithology Symbol Libraries

Libraries are used to store symbols that can be used for lithologies, symbol types, and well packing materials. Lithologic libraries contain 18 symbols each. GaeaSynergy comes with several previously defined libraries. In addition, any number of new libraries can be created, making the number of lithologic symbols available unlimited.

Each symbol also has a default symbol description stored in the library, which is used when selecting lithologies and creating legends. When a legend is created the default description will be used for the symbol description in the legend. If this description is then edited in the legend, the new description will only appear in that legend. The new description in the legend will not replace the default description in the library. To change the default description the description must be changed in the library as discussed below. However, the actual symbols are the same in the legend as in the library and if edited in the legend the symbols in the library will change as well.

This section describes how to:

•Create a new library

•Edit a library

•Save a library

•Print a library

•Delete a library
