Re: geosoft.gxpy.view.View.gxview.move_group_to_folder_2d always raises 'Could not find group'
Hi @VictorSavenije. This is arguably a bug but I can provide a workaround. The bug itself is that while "gxgroup.Draw" does indeed create the group, it does not update the backing tree representing the folder structure the Map Manager.
The only way to update this backing tree is to use the GXEMAP class from gxapi folder. FYI in case youre wondering, you can think of gxpy classes as being build top and abstracting gxapi classes).
Here is my workaround:
import geosoft.gxpy as gxpy
from geosoft.gxpy import group
from geosoft.gxpy import map
from geosoft.gxpy import view
from geosoft.gxapi import GXEMAP
from geosoft.gxapi import GXMAP
…
with gxpy.gx.gx() as gxc:
gx_emap = GXEMAP.load(r'D:\SomFolder\Map1.map')
gx_map = gx_emap.lock()
newmap = map.Map.from_gxapi(gx_map)
with view.View.new(newmap, 'view_name') as newview:
with group.Draw(newview, name='group_name') as newgroup:
p1 = (0,0)
p2 = (1,1)
newgroup.line((p1, p2))
newview.gxview.add_folder_2d('folder_name', '')
gx_emap.un_lock()
gx_emap.un_load_all()
with map.Map.open(r'D:\SomFolder\Map1.map') as newmap:
with view.View.open(newmap, 'view_name') as newview:
group_number = newview.gxview.find_group('group_name')
newview.gxview.move_group_to_folder_2d('folder_name', group_number)

Re: Dark Mode for Geo
I'd like to pitch in and say that it would be a great feature.
Re: When exporting sections, how do I export borehole lines/paths with the model (dwg)?
Under the Boreholes folder you are able to export the polylines as a dxf this can then be imported to your CAD environment to show the traces
Re: Dark Mode for Geo
Hello what do you mean by that? like full dark mode for the interface (menus,panels, tree, etc…)

Re: When exporting sections, how do I export borehole lines/paths with the model (dwg)?
Although it may not be a real solution for the issue you are facing, if you export only the well traces of the profile as a tiff file, they will plot in the correct coordinates. The only thing is that the traces are not editable like a .dwg file would be.
Re: Interpolation Error - Unexpected internal error: Internal matrix not definite
Hi Scott,
At a very high level the error means the LF cannot find a sufficient equation with the RBF interpolant to approximate the input data through the bounding box.
Sometimes changing your surface resolution is enough to fix the issue. You can also try changing the boundary size or resolution slightly or changing the drift setting on the RBF interpolant. Do you have a trend applied? You can also try tweaking the trend slightly.
Re: how to decrease font size of the legend title
For some reason the legend text is scaled to your monitor. So if you want the legend to be the same size as the text in your legend entries, you will need to set your Scale to 100% in your Display Settings.
Re: How to produce mining compliance mesh out of two asmined surfaces mesh
You might be able to pull this off with a Combined model. Make your first GM (no base lithology) and call it Designed. Add two lithologies: To_be_mined, and Not_to_be_mined. Then make a new Erosion/Intrusion surface → From Surface and use your designed mesh, To_be_mined younger than Not_to_be_mined. Activate the surface with Not_to_be_mined as your background lithology
Then make your second GM (also no base litholgy) and call it Actual. Add two lithologies: Mined, and Unmined. Then make a new Erosion/Intrusion surface → From Surface and use your as-mined mesh, Mined younger than Unmined. Activate the surface with Unmined as your background lithology
Then Create a new Combined model with all 4 volumes. Your Mined, To_Be_Mined volume will be what you intended to pull out; your Mined, Not_to_be_mined is your Overmined (you can rename the volume); your Unmined, To_be_mined is your Undermined, and your Unmined, Not_to_be_mined is what you kept in the ground.
Re: legend title comes on big font how to decrease it?
Hello,
Which version of Leapfrog are you using? I am using version 2025.3.0 and the legend title text seems to match the numbers.
Are you displaying a numeric model in the scene? Not a cross section layout legend or anything?
