My logs are all over 200m long. How do I set the scale so that only 20 m is shown on each page?

Strater scales logs based on a scaling depth per inch (or centimeter, depending on how you have your page units set up). To set it up so that there is 20 m per page, go through the following steps:

1.     Go to File | Page Setup. If this is grayed out, go to View | Borehole View Properties and in the Property Manager, change the Log Display Mode to Page View.

2.     In the Page Setup dialog, note the Height of the Log Pane.

3.     Divide the scale you want per page (20 m in this case) by the height of the log pane. For example, if the log pane height is 7.8”, you would divide 20 by 7.8 to get 2.56.

4.     Go to View | Borehole View Properties.

5.     In the Property Manager and set Auto-recalculate Scale to False.

6.     Set the Scaling Depth per Inch value to the number calculated in Step 3 (ie. 2.56).
