Text Interval columns are similar to text data columns in that they can be used to display text at any depth. In Text Interval columns a top and bottom depth for the text is specified. An optional line can be drawn across the column at these top and bottom depths.

 

Text Interval columns can also be linked together so that the top and bottom depths only need to be specified once for all of the linked columns. This is useful for samples and laboratory results that are shown on several columns. Facies, Constituent, and Member columns can also be linked. The template for the log specifies which columns are linked.

 

When a new log is created, text interval datasets will be automatically created for whatever text interval data columns are specified in the template. The names of these text interval datasets will appear in the Text Interval Data submenu of the Edit menu and the Popup menu. It is also possible to create additional text interval datasets or delete datasets as described the sections below.
