Unconformity

Click the Draw | Shape | Unconformity command to draw an unconformity line in the view window. An unconformity is a collection of one or more connected line segments. The lines are wavy. Usually this line type is used to show unconformable surface contacts in a cross section view or borehole view. You can choose a line style, color, and arrowheads for the unconformity display. The amplitude and wavelength of the line can also be set.
