Lab summary on fence diagram

I did this once for incorporating additional non depth related graphs on a test boring sheet.  It was a while back so my memory may not be entirely accurate but it basically worked like this.

1. Export the table (or graph) you want to place on the fence diagram as a gINT drawing(*.gdw).

2. Open the exported drawing in the gINT drawing editor and create a block from all the elements in the drawing.  Place it in the drawing library and name it something like TableInsert.  You will always use the same name.

3. In your fence template insert the block from the drawing library that you created in step 2.  You can position it where you want using the x and y offsets.  It will always apear in the same place so you need to make sure it will nevfer interfere with the fence posts (see 6 below if you want to custom position the table on each and every fence).

4. Output the fence and your table should appear on the on the fence along with the selected fence posts.

5. For the next fence you have to recreate the appropriate table, export it to gINT drawing and recreate the TableInput block  (Overwrite the contents of the old TableInput block).  If you want the same table as was placed on the previous fence then this is not necessary.  Then generate the next fence.

6. If you want to be able to place the table at different places on the fence, depending on the location of the fence posts, you can modify step 3 and 4 above by exporting the fence to a gINT drawing as well. Then open the fence in gINT draw and manually insert the block created in step 2 into the gINT drawing of the fence.

Since the table is generated from the original template, any change in the original template is automatically incorporated into the fence diagram.  Also, since they are independent templates, you can generate the table using different/more/less borings than those selected to appear on the fence,  This can be both good (it may be the desired effect) or bad (you can easily mismatch the table results to the borings shown on the fence).

A little bit cumbersome and tedious but once it is set up we were able to generate 100+ drawing sheets in a matter of a day.

If you want more specific instructions I can probably recover/recreate what I did but it may be a few weeks before I can get to it.

I was having a significant brain cramp on this, but once i realized I was over-thinking it I had it working in about 20 minutes.

Thanks for your tips!
