BugCAD Paleo Charting Program - Basic Instructions

When you run BugCad, this drawing canvas appears.  This is the actual AutoCAD drawing program, which means that the user can annotate the charts after they are drawn by the BugCAD program, using the engine of the most powerful drafting program in the world.

Click the BugCAD button on the Toolbar to display the BugCAD Template window.  Continue below...

This is the BugCAD Template, where the chart characteristics are defined. The column style buttons are circled in red.  Each button defines a type of columns to be drawn on the chart. 

A column could be, for example, a total abundance curve, an elog, a paleoenvirnoment graph, a general distribution of all bugs, a graphical lithology column, etc.
