--- Start of Idrisi List message Hi all, I'm a new user to IDRISI having used ESRI products a fair bit and recently using IDRISI for a course i'm doing. I've got a couple of questions that i was hoping someone could help me with: 1) How can you buffer a vector points file? I have tried using the ANALYSIS - Distance operation - Buffer .. but this only seems available for raster layers? Can anyone advise - do i have to convert to raster first? 2) How can you view the attributes of a raster or vector layer? I have tried the Feature Properties button from the composer - but this doesn't list any attributes on any layers. - and they definitely have attributes! 3) Display and presentation - can anyone tell me how to change the colours or symbols of layers manually? i.e assign colours and fills to specific layers and values within layers? I have found how to change the whole symbol set, but cannot see how I can change individual layers? Any help with these questions above would be gratefully received.
