MI MB: intersecting line with polygon
Hi, I have a table with many polygons and an object variable containing a polyline. I'd like to know, for each polygon intersected by the polyline, the length of the part of the line that falls within it. Is it possible to achieve that through MB? thanks in advance, Jeff Lepine [EMAIL PROTECTED]
MI: Overlapping labels problem
Hello, Is there a function in MB that can determine if a label object overlap another one (kind of a boolean function)? I'm asking 'cause I have a layer with overlapping labels and don't want to show them(I know that I can set overlapping to off, but then one of the two or three overlapping labels will still be visible, exactly what I'm trying to avoid). In fact, the only visible labels I want are those who don't overlap with any other. In my idea, if I can use a true/false function, I can then use a condition in which I would specify to show only the labels with a false value. I tried to read through the MB docs, but didn't find anything satisfying. So, if you have any idea how to achieve that (or have another way to achieve the same result), it would be gladly appreciated. Thanks in advance for answering, Jeff Lepine

MI/MB: Text object orientation
Hi, I had to import a .e00 file containing text objects. Many of them had an orientation. Now, I need to know this orientation so I can put it in a new field which will be used later for labeling purpose (in order to give the labels the same orientation as the text objects). So, my question is: How can I achieve that through MapInfo or MapBasic? Thanks in advance for your answers, Jeff Lepine [EMAIL PROTECTED]
