[MI-L] Iconi Image Buttons in dialogs

2006-09-25 Thread Rakesh Rao

Hello,

I am trying to build a MapBasic dialog box with iconin toggle buttons whose 
toggle state is 
shown by changing icon images (bmp). How do I do this? What control I must use?

Any help is appreciated and thanks in advance.

[MI-L] DLL function name limit

2006-09-25 Thread Rakesh Rao

Hello,

I am trying to connect to a C DLL and it appears that there is a limit of 31 
characters in the 
name of the DLL function? Is there any setting or variable to over-ride this 
limit and use 
longer named DLL functions. In this particular DLL that I have, most functions 
are named 31 
characters or longer. Is there an easier option for me other than to rename and 
recompile the 
entire function library?

[MI-L] The memory could not be Read

2006-09-25 Thread Robin Smith



Hi 
all,

I've got another 
puzzle to offer to the list. One of our MapInfo users is trying to open a 
workspace and is getting the following message:

The Instruction at 
"0x006352f6" referenced memory at "0x04a0". The memory could not be 
"Read"

Click OK to 
terminate the program.
Click CANCEL to 
debug the program.


I'd appreciate any 
advice; I'm able to open the workspace myself without any difficulties and the 
user apparently has enough memory on her computer to open the 
workspace.

if you use the 'Alias' clause in your DLL function declarations does that
get around this problem?

Re: [MI-L] MI 7 Window export

2006-09-25 Thread Eric_Blasenheim

Jacques,

The Save Window as command
does not change any map/layer properties. By this I mean that no matter
what options you choose (size, resolution, etc.), the map layer properties
(including text size) will never change. The option to use a custom size
acts the same as if you had changed the size of the window. One very good
way of seeing what Save Window as will produce is to create
a layout with the map in question in a frame. Change the frame size to
the intended custom size and you will see the same labels and relationship
of graphic objects (symbols, line styles) to geography that you will see
in the exported bitmap. 

If your intention was to create an image
that graphically scales (text and symbols get larger or smaller based on
the frame size), the best way to do that is to save an image without changing
the size but at a higher resolution, assuming the image is meant to get
larger. The behavior will be slightly different based on your format
choice. 

By choosing EMF, you are creating a
vector format where the text and symbols are described at some base size.
The rendering engine in Windows for EMF will display the image in a new
size and will effectively call the font renderer with different size fonts
as you change the viewing size. 

In the case of PNG, the output is raster.
By saving with a higher resolution, the display is not changing the font
size but scaling the raster. The closer one gets to a 1 to 1 pixel to display
size, the better the image will look. 

If your requirement is to be more flexible
about the eventual display size, EMF is probably a safer choice. This is
the scenario that a vector export was designed to handle. However, if the
goal is to send the image to someone else, fonts (such as the MapInfo symbol
fonts and any text fonts you use) would have to exist on the end users
system for the EMF to display with those fonts. A PNG, being already rasterized,
does not have this issue.

Since you mentioned Visio, you would
have to check what Visio does with imported metafiles as well. However,
most of the Microsoft Office related products handle metafiles well. 

I hope this helps.

Sincerely,

Eric Blasenheim

[MI-L] MI 7 Window export

Testing the possibilities of vector format
(png and emf) for insertion of a mapper window saved as  into a Visio
document, I have noticed that label size do not seem to follow window size
redefinition before saving. That is, if I multiply by two the size of the
window to be saved, label text is not increased proportionately. Do other
versions than MI 7.0 have the same problem? Or am I way down left field
passed the parking lot?

[MI-L] Mapinfo wishlist

2006-09-25 Thread Eric Gagnon

Could mapinfo add this function to it's software..

When you're browsing for workspaces (open workspaces) you could see a
thumbnail of your layout or map in your workspace instead of having a
workspace icon type of file. (just like when you're browsing to a piture
folder)
So you don't have to open it to see what it is when you're looking for
something..

It would be very usefull especially with workspaces you haven't opened
in a long time.



Thanks

[MI-L] Centering Thematic Legends

2006-09-25 Thread Robert DeRubeis





I recently updated MI Pro from 7.8 to 8.5 and noticed that when I create a thematic legend, everything is Left justified. Using v7.8, the title, subtitle and ranges would all come up centered. Somewhere in v8.0 or 8.5 (I assume) mapinfo changed this to be left justified. I'd like to have the thematic legends centered like they were in v7.8. Does anyone know a way to do this?

Thanks,
Bob

[MI-L] Loop through columns dynamically viewing values

2006-09-25 Thread Hayden Fisher








Hi all,



I trying to loop through an Excel spreadsheet. The first
record holds the column titles. So I need to loop through the columns checking
the values and matching them up to the array shown below.



The problem Im having is getting the column value
with the column title as a variable and analyzing it.



Dim arrStrTableFields1(7)

Dim arrStrTableFields2(7)

arrStrTableFields1(1) = Asset_ID

arrStrTableFields1(2) = Status

arrStrTableFields1(3) = Material

arrStrTableFields1(4) = Diameter

arrStrTableFields1(5) = US_Invert_Level

arrStrTableFields1(6) = DS_Invert_Level

arrStrTableFields1(7) = Depth_of_cover



Select * From tempAttributeTable Where ROWID=1 into
tblTempColumns

For y = 1 to TableInfo(tblTempColumns,TAB_INFO_NCOLS)

 strColumnName
= ColumnInfo(tblTempColumns, COL+y,
COL_INFO_NAME)

 

 For
x = 1 to UBound(arrStrTableFields1)

 *This
is the problem here, accessing the column through a variable

 If
(tblTempColumns.strColumnName = arrStrTableFields1(x))Then

 arrStrTableFields2(x)
= strColumnName

 End
If

 Next

Next
