MI SUM : X,Y - Regions
Dear Listers, my problem was : My data is region(attrib), x1,y1,x2,y2,x3,y3,x4,y4 I wanted to create regions by connecting points 1-2,2-3,3-4,4-1. Solutions : 1) If you have Mapbasic - it should be no problem. 2) If you don't have mapbasic : - export a sample region in MIF and edit MIF with a text editor. - Use the cre8quad.mbx written by David M Haycraft ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) which works great.

MI Map Basic
Dear Friends I need a help for the following. a) Suppose I have a map and within it I have a retangle with a physical dimension of 1 km per 2 km. Let's call two neighbor sides of this retangle as axis X and axis Y b) Suppose I have in the inner part ofthe retangle a movable point which can walk each 100 meters . c) Suppose that at a certain position of the point its distance to the four sides of the retangle are X1, X2, Y1and Y2 d) I want to do a routine that makes the internal point to "walk" to all positions inside the retangle and in each one it calculate the function Z= X1 + 2xX2 + 3xY1 + 4xY2 To do this I believe I have to program a routine in a program like MapBasic. My questions are yhe following: 1) Is there another way to do what I am mentioning? 2) Is there another (free) software like mapBasic that we can use to work with MaPInfo? 3) Where to buy the MapBasic? I thank you in advance and please include me in the list for regular discussions Best Regards Sérgio Feitoza CostaCognitor - Consultoria, Pesquisa Tecnológica e Treinamento Rua Babaçu, 103/202 - Rio de Janeiro - RJ - Brazil - CEP 21931-230Tel 21 - 3934600 ou 9137 6257 Fax: 21 393 4600E-mail : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Home-Page: www.esquadro.com.br/~cognitor

Re: MI reducing spatial coverage
You should save a copy of your table with bounds set. Export to Mid/Mif format, open the .mif file in text editor, and edit the coordsys line (see mapinfo help on setting bounds for projection systems). Hope that helps. Sincerely, Sonya Laith Wark wrote: Dear Friends, I am working with a number of tables with much more spatial coverage than I require (redraw times are intolerable). How can define a spatial boundary to reduce the coverage? I've clipped the area using region but all the data is still there, it seems that clipping is merely cosmetic. I've tried selecting using a rectangular marquee however this dosen't work as some objects overlap the desired boundary edge. I've tried redistricting but failed, because of too many districts in a table. Any advice would be appreciated++.

It works except I have to do it one school district at a time or I get an error: "An error occurred overlaying the objects." I have done some experimenting and it looks as though the data sill splits even though I am getting this error. However, I am reluctant to just assume this without knowing the details of the error.

MI MB: layout window behavior when changing printer driver in MB 3.51
Hello, I am having a problem with the layout window behavior when the printer changes. I have an application using mi runtime 3.51 and mb 3.51 and vb. One peice of the application allows the user creates a layout window and sets a few frames on it which the user can then change/edit/print. once done, the window is dismissed. if the current printer is then changed through the MI printer setup dialog and the user creates another layout window and I place the frames on it the layout "gray area" (behind the white area)is resized either significantly bigger or smaller. I am assuming the gray area is set by MI querying the printer driver. in mapinfo 3.51 the layouts correctly recognize the printer change and correctly size the layout "gray area". does anyone know if this is a limitation/bug in 3.51 or am I missing a method to force MI Runtime 3.51 to requery/adjust its layout settings. I have tried all the layout and coordsys calls/settings. thanks.

MI RE: point object to rectangle with update command
There is a way that you can use the update command, but it still needs mapbasic.
If you set up a function that accepts a point object object returns a rectangle
object,
ie
Update Table Set Obj = makeRect(obj)
Function makeRect(BYVAL Pointobj As Object) As OBJECT
Dim myObj As Object
Create Rect Into myObj
((CentoidX(PointObj)-GridSpace/2), (CentoidY(PointObj)-GridSpace/2)),
((CentoidX(PointObj)+GridSpace/2), (CentoidY(PointObj)+GridSpace/2)),
End Function
It only works in MapBasic, but works about as fast as normal update commands.
Robert.

Subject:MI RE: point object to rectangle with update command
As I already said in my question, this command can not be used together
with the update command. This command is simular to the Create Circle
command, which is different to the CreateCircle() function. This can only
be used with the alter command, going through the table record for record,
and then it will take to much time.

Please check more one help of MapBasic. There is function, which you are
looking for.
The syntax is:
Create Rect [ Into { Window window_id | Variable var_name } ]
( x1, y1) ( x2, y2)
[ Pen . . . ]
[ Brush . . . ]

Hi all,
Last week I had a question how I could change a set of points which are
situated in a regular grid into a polygon. I came to the conclusion that
probably the easiest way is to change the points into squares, so that
they
fit exactly to each other, and then combine them into one polygon.
For this I can use the alter object command to change the object for
every
point into a rectangle, but with the alter object every record will be
changed one by one, which is much too slow, as I might have more then
one
million records.
In the mapbasic help they recommand to use the Update command, where a
complete selection is changed. To change the object, they give the
example:
Update "selection"
set object = CreatePoint(CentroidX(obj),CentroidY(obj))
This brings me to the next question: If I want to use the update command
to
change the object, and I want to change the object into a rectangle, how
can
I do that? It seems to me that one can only use CreatePoint(),
CreateCircle(), CreateLine() and CreateText(). Why isn't there a
CreateRect() function?
(There is a Create rect command, but it seems that I can not use that
together with the update command?)
Is there somebody who can help me with this, as the alter object command
is
really not wotkable. (It would take some hours when you have a fast pc,
with
a slow pc I really don't want to try this...)
Thanks, Carla
