How to open the 2D details tab

1. On the Map menu bar, select Plotting | Print Scaled Window Plot or Plotting | Print Scaled Template Plot to open the Print to Windows Device dialog box.
2. Click the <...> button beside Edit or View Detailed Plot Settings to open the Detailed Plot Options dialog box.
3. Click on the 2D Details tab.

Define Seismic 2D Line Point and Print Point Connector

The options in this section control the 2D line decimation.

• Decimate By - Select to decimate 2D lines by trace, shotpoint, or distance.
• Decimation Interval - Type a value for the interval between traces. Read more.

For example, if you select to decimate by Distance and enter a decimation factor of 50, then WinPICS selects a trace approximately every 50m. If you select to decimate by Trace and enter a decimation factor of 2, then WinPICS selects every second trace.

• Restriction - Select how to define valid numbers for your decimation results. Read more.

Your choices are:

Continuing from the example shown for Decimation Factor, if you select Only Integer Locations, then WinPICS will select the closest trace to 50m that is an integer. If you only select locations that are a multiple of 5, then WinPICS will only select traces that are closest to the 50m and are a multiple of 5.

• Multiple Of - If you select Only Locations Multiple Of for your restriction, then you need to type the multiple value into this field.
• Always have End Points - Select this check box if you want WinPICS to accept the first and last traces even if they do not fall within the output restriction. For example, if you decimate by shot point in conjunction with only location multiple of 5, then decimation would yield 101, 105, 110, etc.
• Start From - Select how to define the starting point from which to start the decimation. Read more.

Your choices are:

• Location No. - If you selected to start from a user defined location, then you need to type a number into this field to define the starting location. For example, a reference of 101 would begin selection at trace/shotpoint/distance 101.
• WinPICS posts Posted Values (picks, etc.) and Survey Labels (shotpoint numbers, etc.) in reference to survey locations after it applies Posting Decimation.

Connecting line between two points

Define how 2D seismic lines display on a plot. You have the following options:

• Line Style - Click <Edit...> to open the Line Attributes dialog box, where you can control the line style, thickness, and color of 2D seismic lines on your plot.
• Line Name Font - Click <Edit...> to open the Font dialog box, where you can change the default font type, style, and size.

Location labels

The options in this section control the frequency and appearance of 2D survey labels posted on your map.

• If the options in this section appear dimmed, select the Content Control tab, in the Map Components section click <Edit...> to open the Plot: Map Components dialog box, and select the Posting Labels check box.
• Location Highlight Symbol Every – Type a value to control the symbol frequency of 2D survey labels on your map. Typically, you will want a symbol at each label location. For example, type 1 and WinPICS will post a symbol for every survey label, or type 2 and WinPICS will post a symbol for every second survey label.
• <Symbol> - Click to open the Symbol dialog box, where you can change the default symbol type. For example, you might select a unique symbol to help set survey annotations apart from data value postings.
• Location Name Label Every – Type a value to control the label frequency of the 2D survey on your map. For example, type 1 and WinPICS will post a label for every survey point, or type 2 and WinPICS will post a label for every second survey point. Typically, you will use a multiple of the symbol frequency.
• <Font> - Click this button next to the Label Frequency field to open the Map Plot Item Annotations dialog box, where you can change the default font type, style, and size.
• Connecting Lines – These lines connect 2D location symbols on your map. Click <Attrib> to open the Line Attributes dialog box, where you can control the line style, thickness, and color of survey labels.
• <Font> - Click this button next to the Line Label field to open the Map Plot Item Annotations dialog box, where you can change the default font type, style, and size of line labels.
• The options you set in the Set Location Decimation Parameters... section controls which locations are available for survey labels.

Data labels

The options in this section control the frequency and appearance of 2D data values posted on your map, including horizon picks, amplitudes, isochrons, and other calculated horizons.

• If the options in this section appear dimmed, select the Content Control tab, in the Map Components section click <Edit..> to open the Plot: Map Components dialog box, and select the Posting Labels check box.
• Data Value Symbol Every – Type in a value to control the symbol frequency of 2D data values on your map. For example, type 1 and WinPICS   will post a symbol for every data point, or type 2 and WinPICS will post a symbol for every second data point, and so on.
• <Symbol> - Click to open the Symbol dialog box, where you change the default symbol type.
• Data Value Label Every – Type in a value to control the label frequency of 2D data values on your map. For example, type 1 and WinPICS   will post a label for every data point, or type 2 and WinPICS will post a label for every second data point, and so on.
• <Font> - Click to open the Map Plot Item Annotations dialog box, where you can change the default font type, style, and size.
