Ground Water Elevation Arrow not Appearing on Report

I am having trouble getting the ground water arrow to appear on my report.

I have currently entered a ground surface elevation at 1295 ft in the Input tab. When I enter a number such as 2 into the "Ground Water Elevation"  in the Input tab, it should subtract from the ground surface elevation  and output the ground water elevation on the report (Should be 1293 feet). Below is where I input the elevation number.

Here is the code that will give the ground water elevation on the report.

<<UnitsConvert(_
  <<ElevFromDepth(<<WATER LEVELS.WATER DEPTH >>)>>,_
  <<User System Data.Ft M Factor>>,_
  <<User System Data.Ft M Format>>_
)>>

Here is what the code spits out.

When I preview the report, the elevation number above will show up, but the ground water elevation arrow will not show up.

This is the code in the depth column currently:

Text Expression:

<<UnitsConvert(_
  <<User System Data.Lithology Bottom Depth>>,_
  <<User System Data.Ft M Factor>>,_
  <<User System Data.Ft M Format>>_
)>>

Depth Expression:

<<User System Data.Lithology Bottom Depth>>

Originally, I was able to have the elevation and ground water elevation arrow both shown under this code:

<<UnitsConvert(_

<<ElevFromDepth(<<User System Data.Water Depth - Single Value>>)>>,_

<<User System Data.Ft M Factor>>,_

<<User System Data.Ft M Format>>_

)>>

Is there a way to add the ground water elevation to my current situation? Or how should I go changing this?

  • Hi Emily,

    Without seeing your library and project I can only generalize. If these files are gINT std US lab, then there are some prebuilt user system data items you can use.

    The Water level arrow usually is done as a discrete graphic vs depth column or individual body entitiy (or entities) depending on how many water levels you need to display.

    If you just want a single water level then you can create a individual body entity and use your expression above. No need to convert to elevation as the water level is placed at the correct depth.

    I am attaching a short video that shows how to create a single water level entity on the report. This again is based on the gINT std US Lab file set. You would need to modify accordingly to match your custom gINT files. If you need more specifics feel free to e-mail me your gINT library and project and I would be happy to give you more specific instructions based on your files.
