Long text string in boring log downhole data is truncated in boring log
Permalink  
 


Hello Bruce,

 I hope you are well. I have a small question regarding the text limit while plotting logs.

 Is there any way to adjust the maximum amount of characters/words in the ‘notes’ section for boring logs? It seems to cap at either 255 characters, or 50 words, and this is causing me some issues with a log I’m trying to produce.

 Thanks,

The database driver for Excel is an odd beast. It looks at the first eight rows and decides a number of things about the columns within the tab.  Here's what you need to do.

  1. Create a new row 2 and copy the row with the very long text string to this row. Make sure to delete the old empty row.
  2. Edit the boring log design template. Double-click on the notes column and select Plot All. (Be careful when double-clicking not to move the Notes column. I found that once I did that I had to zoom in and carefully move the column back in position.)
  3. OK to close Downhole Interval Data dialog and OK again to redraw the boring logs.
