Re: [mapguide-users] permissions to users in the admin site

2009-07-06 Thread Kenneth Skovhede, GEOGRAF A/S
You can set permissions on items using a tool such as Maestro or Studio. I would not recommend doing so, as it is very difficult to do so. To display a map, the user must have read access to: * The weblayout * The mapdefinition * Every layer in the map * Every featuresource referenced by the map

Re: [mapguide-users] creating package problem

2009-07-06 Thread Kenneth Skovhede, GEOGRAF A/S
Does the map have extent set? I think you mean something else than "package". A package in MapGuide is a copy of a folder, compressed as a zip file, and stored outside MapGuide as a regular file. Creating a package does not affect how MapGuide operates. When you write "after creating package",

2009-07-06 Thread Jackie Ng
You are pretty much correct, the load procedure will reduce the vertex count by the specified percentage. How it does the generalization I have no idea. Though I believe that number is the percentage you want to reduce, not the total percentage you are after. So if you had 5 points along the line

You should ask where you purchased Studio if you want information specific to Studio. There exists a Studio forum somewhere on the Autodesk website. Commonly, you can only generalize point or polygon data, where an algorithm will remove points that are "close" or "on the same line", thus producin
