MI-L Linking Mapinfo to a Powerpoint presentation

Hello, I'm sure this should be very easy but after quite some time searching the net for a solution I am still at a loss. I have been requested to compile a presentation in Powerpoint (no problem so far), however it is necessary that the maps presented be interactive. This means that I can't do

MI-L HP plotting problems with oversized Paper

Hi We often encounter the following problem and I would be astonished if that has never happened before (however I did not find anything in the archive): With large size hp plotters (such as the 800 or 5000 models), if you create user defined paper size or use oversize papers (such as 42 by 60)

RE: MI-L HP plotting problems with oversized Paper

We've had similar problems and here is the explanation from MapInfo - which actually solved the problem. Short answer - the maximum page dimension (in inches) multiplied by the resolution needs to be less than 28,000. But here's the official answer: * It sounds like you are running into

MI-L Mapbasic Earth from Space

I have seen a Mapbasic application that transforms the current map window in an image like seen from space. I cannot find this application anymore on the web. I would transform a worldmap to represent it as cercle like seen from space with a longitude and latitude grid. Thanks Rainer

RE: Re[2]: MI-L HP plotting problems with oversized Paper

RE: MI-L Unicode support in Pro / TAB files?

No answers from the list on this one but I did get an answer from the technical guys at MapWorld. At the moment there is no native Unicode support so my Japanese data will have to work on Japanese versions of Pro at the moment. This will all change this year with the .NET direction. Regards,

Re: MI-L GML2 export in Pro 7?

GML import seems to be there, but no GML export. It is natively implemented, but it doesn't say anything about the version of GML. Kind regards Uffe Kousgaard www.routeware.dk - Original Message - From: Warren Vick, Europa Technologies Ltd. [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: MapInfo-L [EMAIL

RE: MI-L GML2 export in Pro 7?

Thanks Uffe. MapInfo obviously changed their mind about export functionality. It states it would be in v7.0 here: http://www.mapinfo.com/products/mipro/beta_70.cfm I wonder how quickly they will change it! Regards, Warren Vick Europa Technologies Ltd. http://www.europa-tech.com -Original

Re: MI-L region to Point .mbx

You can do this without an mbx. First, set the symbol you want with Options/Symbol Style. Next, make the layer editable and make your selection. Then open the mapbasic window and enter: Update Selection set obj=CreatePoint (CentroidX (obj), CentroidY (obj)) That should do it, or double your

MI-L PostGIS export

Hi all, Does anyone know of a MapInfo uploader to PostGIS? It seems that there is a program to take shape files to PostGIS, so there is an option there. Alternatively I will write an mbx that exports the SQL required. Not too hard, but could be slow to run. Thought I would check if anyone

Hi Sisirak, and everyone I have encountered the same fundamental problem with 3D Oracle Spatial data which MapInfo steadfastly refuses to read properly (MI 7.0). The data has been processed and uploaded to an Oracle 9i database using GeoMedia. Any data which I process in MapInfo and upload

MS Access2000 wasn't supported in MapInfo 4.5. I guess you need to upgrade to either MapInfo 6.0 or 6.5, I don't quite remember when MS Access was supported. HTH, Peter Horsbøll Møller GIS Developer COWI A/S Rugårdsvej 55 DK 5000 Odense C Tel +45 6313 5013 Direct+45 6313 5008 Mobil
