Hi Maciek,
The reasoning behind the sx, sy, ex, ey is for cases where you wish to tile
only a certain section of a map at a specific threshold.
In the case where:
You have a map of large areal extents, such as a country or state level.
The map has large areas of water or other areas of non-vital importance.
Due to the amount of tiles that may be pre-generated for these non-vital
areas at large scale zoom thresholds, and the hard drive space and
processing time required, you may wish not to generate the tiles.
By using the sx/ex - Starting Tile Column/Ending Tile Column and sy/ey -
Starting Tile Row/Ending Tile Row - you may specify the row/column bounds of
the tile generation.
When you are generating the tiles with the engine, it will specify the
number of tiles for each row column. Use this number and the map extents
specified in the Map Definition in Studio to determine a rough idea of where
to start or end your tiling. The starting row/column is the upper left
corner of the map.
i.e.
x1 x2 x3 x4...
y1
y2
y3
y4
.
.
.
Each of these parameters are optional and will default to the original
starting and ending row columns if not specified.
It is possible - since the row/columns have no reference to a projection or
coordinate system, that the engine be modified to accept real world
coordinates in order to specify a bounding box more readily. Maybe in a
future release depending on feedback.

Dear Kori.
Yesterday, after you gave me a tip how to use T.E., i generated lot of
tiles. It works fine!
Now I'm wondering how to use parameters sx, sy, ex, ey to reduce generating
of empty tiles.
What are criteria of using these parameters?
Regards, Maciek
