Hello all. MI Virgin here.
I am currently using Professional V7.8 and am having problems with raster images. I have registered my image as stated in the manual. It has created a .TAB file, which I have then used to create a Geoset that I am using to create a mapping application. Every thing seemed to be going OK until I tried to place the .TAB file on to another Geoset (The European Geoset that was given free with the software) All of a sudden the adding of my .TAB file distorted everything. I found out the projection of the vector images in the European Geoset were Long/Lat (WGS 84) and so re-registered my GIF to be the same but still got the same problem. As the raster image is not a picture of the world I'm unsure on understanding the whole none earth projection subject. Also I'm unsure if my original registration points are accurate enough. How do you make them more accurate? Does zooming in to the picture make them more accurate? Also when I add a image coordinate when first registering (say 0, 200) it does not produce a map X and Y coordinate. Is this important and do I need to do something with this? Can I use the example Geosets given freely to add my own .TAB files? Once I figure out how to do it that is! Or is there a block of some sorts on them? Sorry if these are basic questions but every one starts some where. So long and thanks for all the fish........ Kevin. ==== This e-mail is intended solely for the addressee.
