Symbolic Plots

A Pole Plot or Dip Vector Plot is capable of displaying feature attribute information, in the form of colour coded / symbolic plots, using the Symbolic Plot option.

To create a Symbolic Plot:

  1. Select Symbolic Plot symbolic plot icon from the toolbar, the View menu, right-click menu or Sidebar.
  2. The Symbolic Plot Options dialog will appear allowing you to select a subset of data to plot.
  3. Select the Data Type that you wish to plot from the drop-list.
  4. Select the appropriate Data Type from either Qualitative or Quantitative data.
  5. Select OK to generate the Symbolic Plot.

The above steps will create a default plot of the data.

NOTES:

  • If your Data Type is QUALITATIVE, you may use the Allocated and Others list boxes to focus on data of interest. See the Qualitative Symbolic Plot topic for more information.
  • If your Data Type is QUANTITATIVE, you may customize the Range, number of Intervals, and Scale the data as either Normal or Logarithmic. See the Quantitative Symbolic Plot topic for more information.
  • To customize the actual symbols used in the plots, use the Edit Symbols option in the Edit menu.
  • Symbol / Column / Data combinations can be "locked" for all Dips files, with the Lock Symbols option in the Edit menu.
  • If you are plotting orientations, you may need to plot the Processed orientations rather than the raw data in the Orientation columns. See the Processed Orientation Data topic for details.

Create Corresponding Chart

To create a corresponding chart from a Symbolic Plot:

  • Right-click on the Symbolic Plot and select Create Corresponding Chart from the Symbolic sub-menu in the right-click menu.
  • The Chart dialog will appear, allowing you to select the Data to Plot, Plot Type, and Set Filter.
  • Select OK to generate the chart.

A new chart view will be automatically generated, using the same data and settings selected for the Symbolic Plot.
