Application Notes

*The GX.NET tools are embedded in the geogxnet.dll file located in the "...\Geosoft\Desktop Applications \bin" folder. If running this GX interactively, bypassing the menu, first change the folder to point to the "bin" directory, then supply the GX.NET tool in the specified format. See the topic Run GX for more details on running a GX.NET interactively.

Direction

The first coordinate in the direction designation indicates the slice plane, the data along the 3rd coordinate changes faster than the 2nd one. For example, in the designation YXZ, an entire slice in the Y plane will be written to the file and in each of these individual sections, consecutive points are ordered along the Z direction, followed by the X direction.
