RE: MI Noise Pollution Mapping

2000-02-21 Thread Adnitt Nick



Yeah 
£200,000 according to The Daily Telegraph, what a 
bargain.NOT! I'll do it for half that next 
time.
 
Seriously though, I trust that they have got a noise 
analysis model for that price so they can at least determine the impact of new 
developments on area of tranquility.

RE: MI 'Chasing' windows

2000-01-07 Thread Adnitt Nick

Martin,

WOW!! It is absolutely, exactly what I needed and the scale option is the
'icing on the cake'.

I now have complete control over 4 views from one 'master' one and it
certainly makes demonstrations easier and much more flashy.

Once again the value of this 'list' has proved itself.

Thanks very much indeed.

Subject: RE: MI 'Chasing' windows




Hi Nick

I saw Richards reply, but as you didn't indicate if you use mapbasic or not
thought I would fire through this program and mbx

Run the MBX - it basically adds a menu item "Centre" with two options:
1) All Windows to Current
2) And Scale All Windows to Current

The first option will set the centre of all map windows to the same as the
current (front) window.  The second option will also set the scale to be the
same.

No error checking, and I haven't tried it on different projections but it
should work

Hope this helps

Martin

Subject: MI 'Chasing' windows


Hi folks,

I have just bought the digitised (scanned) historic mapping of Southampton.
It consists of 4 'snapshots' through time starting at 1836.

If I want to show the same geographic area at four different times through
history I can show each table within a different MapInfo map window.

If I pan in one of the windows to move to a different area, I then have to
pan the other three windows by the same amount to show the same new area.

Is there a way to update the other three windows automatically with the same
geographic area as the 'master' window (view), so that the windows appear to
chase each other? (I hope this explains roughly what I mean!!).

cheers

MI Populating an object's column with the Easting and Northing values of the object

1999-11-23 Thread Adnitt Nick

Learned Friends,

A simple request, I just want to update two columns with the X and Y
coordinates of the object so that when I export the table I get one comma
delimited ASCII file with the attributes AND the coordinates of the object.

I have used the CentroidX(obj) and CentroidY(obj) functions but they return
the Longitude and Latitude of the object and NOT the British National grid
coordinates in metres that the original MapInfo table is in.

Any ideas.?

regards

MI 5.5 error message on startup

1999-11-01 Thread Adnitt Nick

Hi Mappers,

I've got a small problem with MapInfo v5.5. Every time I start it up I get
the following error message:.

(c:\program files\mapinfo\professional\mapinfow.mnu:1020) MapInfo database
driver failed to load.C:program 
files\mapinfo\professional\midloci.dll or dependent driver not found

I've de-installed/re-installed it several times but it still doesn't work.
The driver file is definately there but it just doesn't load.

I have to confess that I did load MI v4.1 (16 bit version) AFTER I loaded MI
v5.5 as I needed it to run a map data convertor program.

HELP.

RE: MI Resignation of OS Director General?

1999-10-28 Thread Adnitt Nick

Seems it's true, check out the OS web site..

Change of leadership at Ordnance
 Survey 

 David Willey has taken over chief executive responsibilities at Ordnance
Survey
 following the decision of Dr Geoff Robinson to step down.

 David Willey said "Geoff Robinson has made a tremendous contribution to
defining the future role
 of Ordnance Survey. In presenting his paper 'Joined up Geography' to the
AGI conference last
 month he also set out his vision of an Ordnance Survey working with
partners to deliver the benefits
 of consistent and accurate geographic data for the good of the Nation.

 This met with the widespread approval of all parts of the industry both
public and private. The
 Ordnance Survey Board of Directors will continue to drive forward this new
business direction."

Doesn't say why though!!

RE: MI Printing from Mr Sid

1999-10-14 Thread Adnitt Nick

Bill,

What printer are you using? Are you using the latest print driver? Has the
printer enough memory? We at Southampton City Council regularly print MrSid
format data from MI 5.5 with no problems. This is to a HP 650C at A1 and A0
sizes. Yeah it does take a while for the data to be decompressed but not
half an hour. Incidently, the printed result is not as good as printing from
the viewer.

Good luck...
