Hi, Does anyone know how MapInfo resolves zoom distances based on degrees? The following code is not doing what I would expect (to zoom a window to the x-extents of one specific object)
minx = objectgeography(ob,obj_geo_minx) maxx = objectgeography(ob,obj_geo_maxx) miny = ... maxy = ... centerx = (maxx-minx)/2 centery = ... set map center(centerx,centery) set map zoom (maxx-minx) units "degree" I have verified that the bounding units are degrees and even using the results from a simple subtraction from the object properties dialog does not get the extents right. I was under the impression that the "zoom distance" parameter for "set map zoom" should only affect the x-extents of the map. Is this incorrect? If there is an easier way to center an object and zoom to its greatest extent I would love to know.
