Polyline Points Vs Structural Discs

When you're working on a geologic model and need to fine-tune a mesh shape: if you reserve structural discs for actual field measurements and use a polyline point with a disc for controlling a surface contour, it will help you keep your measurements separate from your modeled control points. The effect on modeling is the same, but with a much more robust data auditing ability. Get Modeling!

  • Great tip Ben. Personally I still prefer to have two disc layers, as it drives me crazy that the discs in line layers auto scale to the zoom level, but the principal is the same!
