Adding and editing a summation track in the Well View

You control the display of data in the Well View using the JewelExplorer, the Template Editor and the visualization options in the toolbar at the top of the view. The template system is an important component of data visualization in the Well View. Using the Well View template system, you can save views that you have created or load other custom and pre-defined views. Since the summation track is not available on any of the pre-defined templates, you have to edit the settings for each track summation within your template using the Template Editor.

  1. Open the Well View (Workspace > Views > Well View or Alt+F6).
  2. Display well(s) by checking the check box in the JewelExplorer.
  3. Select an existing template, or, to create a new template, select None in the Template drop-down list in the Well View toolbar.
