the quick section generated by Openground professional does not have colour. The legnad bars are black and white. Is there anyway i can create the section with the same colour as the logs?
Hi, please refer to this article How To Use Color Coding for Material Graphics, specifically the section on "How To Use Color Coding In Conjunction With Pattern-Based Graphics".
The article shows how to set up the 2 "Graphics Bars" for the pattern and the color coding within a log template, but the same approach can be used to add color coding to your Quick Section templates.
Hi Jesse, I had the same issue and have now added the colour properties according to geology code using the article you linked. Now I want to add the geology colours to be displayed in the legend key. How do I do this?
Hi Anna-Lise, I assume you are referring to the Legend Key on a Quick Section report? Unfortunately, that is not currently supported and the legend is hard coded to show just the Legend Code graphics. However, we have some enhancements scheduled to be released very shortly that will allow you to create more dynamic Legend reports.
Hi Jesse,
Yes that's the one. Great, any idea when those enhancements will be released? Is there a date you're working towards?
Hi Anna-Lise, it is tentatively planned for late this month or possibly in May.
Hi Jesse, I've noted that the update now allows you to toggle between using the legend code and geology code as the legend key but not both. Is there another way to do this? It's not particularly useful to only have one over the other.
Hi Anna-Lise, the updates I was referring to haven't been released yet. They are now planned for the end of this month.
Note that the new features will allow you to create separate customizable Legend reports. For now, the Quick Section Legend Key will still be hard coded. The plan is to also make the Quick Section Legends more customizable, but I don't have a solid timeline for that.
