For creating svg graphics for sed log, you can use inkscape, a free software. modify any graphics and then you can import in sedlog or corel draw also.

The link "http://mattbk.com/?q=node/592" beeing actually down, would it be possible to know what was your solution?

I have the same problem ... could you please explain it further?

I'm also looking for a solution to this issue. Even after creating .svg patterns in Inkscape, Sedlog fails to import them.

Don't go to the Matt Burton-Kelly link...it has a virus.

Thanks

I finally figured out a way around the problem. I don't know if my solution will work for you. I'm running Windows 7, SedLog 3.0, and Inkscape 0.48. (1) Open the SedLog program folder that contains the SVG files: Computer > Local Disk > Program Files (x86) > SedLog 3.0 > patterns > lithology. Place your new svg files in here, where the original svgz files are kept. (2) Go up to SedLog 3.0 > data > lithology. Open the OTHER.DAT file with Notepad++. Enter the code for the new svg files, for example:

Ripple-bdd Sand or Ss USGS 611

patterns/lithology/Ripple-bdd Sand or Ss USGS 611.svg

1.0

Now open the SedLog program and try to create a bedding layer with your new svg patterns. If it appears to work but you can't see anything but white where the pattern should be, then your pattern is "off the page". In Inkscape, Go back into Inkscape and adjust the pattern on the page. The coordinates should be, roughly, X=0, Y=1002, W=50, H=50 px. Save it as an svg file and repeat the directions above. I hope this works for you!

Hi everyone,

I found this: http://mattbk.com/content/sedlog-symbols-windows-7-64-bit

To solve this problem, first you have to uninstall sedlog, then you can download and run the installer again selecting troubleshoot Compatibility. I installed sedlog 3.1. It worked for me in Window 8, 64 bits.

I added a word file for the explanation step by step. My window version is in spanish language. I try to do a tutorial in english, sorry if my english writing is not good... :)

Use of inkscape software will be helpful in this regard.

It is free vector graphics software available for multiple platform where you can edit any kind of vector graphics content

the "unable to read this file"-error can also indicate that Sedlog was unable to save the new .svg-file before, because your Windows 7 user account has no rights to change data files in "C:\Program files(x86)\Sedlog-3.1". To solve the problem, just re-install Sedlog and choose a file path like "C:\Sedlog" for instance and it should work.

Hello everyone, please has someone ever tried using the easycore software before to draw a sed litho log ??
