Tutorial 2: Working with Data 27

The white letter in a grey circle to the left of the “Attribute” indicates the data

value type; "i" for integers, "r" for real floating point numbers, "t" for text, and

"o" for data objects.

icon and object name as the Value. The CoordinateSystem attribute shown above

is an example of an object. Objects can usually be edited or activated by double-

clicking on the object value. For example, double-clicking on the

CoordinateSystem will display the coordinate system in the Geosoft Coordinate

System dialog.

5. Values displayed in a grey box cannot be changed. Values displayed in a white

box may be changed.

6. To close the dialog, click the ( ) on the top right corner.

Drag-n-Drop

The ability to drag XYZ files and drop them into an open database file (*.GDB) has been

added to Oasis montaj. Note that, only default parameters are used and XYZ files must

be in the correct format and the database must be large enough to hold the dropped XYZ

file.

The ability to drag other file types directly from Windows Explorer and drop them into

Oasis montaj for display is also available including; grid files (*.GRD), map files

(*.MAP) and database files (*.GDB) files. Items on the Project Explorer bar may also be

dragged and dropped.
