MI-L Theming TIGER line roads via CFCC designations

Hello all, I recently used tgr2mif to bring in the 2003 TIGER Line roads for Florida. I created a thematic using the roads layer and the two digit CFCC field, but this resulted in a theme unlike anything I have seen from MapInfo's roads. The toll roads are themed as primary and secondary highw

MI-L Seeking help understanding projections and non horizontal east west lines

Hi, First, thanks to everyone for their help with my previous questions. I am creating grid lines with the Discover add on for MapInfo. I am in UTM NAD27 projection. All of my tables, my map settings, etc are set for this projection. I am puzzled as to why the grid lines are not horizontal

Sum: MI-L 'Save Workspace As' in my specified path?

Bill Thoen => use the FileSaveAsDlg() function Thank YOU. I helplessly stared at the 'M_FILE_SAVE_WORKSPACE' command... FileSaveAsDlg ( path , filename, filetype, prompt ) (From MB help) The 'path' thing was what I was looking for. Then I can do a 'Save Workspace As' afterwards. This list bea

MI-L Map window doesn't update

Hi List, I've made this custom tool that copies a column value from a table, creates a point in the map in another layer and updates a specific column. Everything is ok but the redraw of the map. I have to press Ctrl+d to see the symbol. Why is that? Is it because of the custom symbol? Create po

Re: MI-L Update Column by matching 2 fields

Thanks to both Robert Crossley and Christine Schildhauer.. I had actually did what Christine suggested (make a separate new column in each with Col1+Col2) and do an update with this new column and it works well. But I also tried Robert's suggestion below and it worked equally well and also did

MI-L Ang. MI-L RE: Answer and question MI-L URGENT Square ends to buffers/buffer overlap problem

Hi list, Lucy - and Nicolas! First, I set out to refute Nicolas statement that the smoothness setting did not affect line objects. But I found he is absolutely right. This has not always been the case, because I at one time in the distant past did make use of some 3 segment buffered lines. That

MI-L RE: Answer and question MI-L URGENT Square ends to buffers/buffer overlap problem

If you use the "one buffer for all objects" function your buffers will no longer overlap. This however doesn't make the corners of your buffer square. On that subject I have always wondered why when you define smoothness for your buffering it only really works for point objects. The buffering aro

MI-L Raster to Vector tools

Hello -L'ers, Can anyone recommend a raster to vector tool that works within Pro and ideally has an API for use with our own software? The rasters should be simple to process as they are a background colour plus 1 or 2 foreground colours (the areas I need to vectorise). I could develop my own by t

MI-L URGENT Square ends to buffers/buffer overlap problem

Hello, I was wondering if anyone can help me to solve a problem I'm having at the moment. Basically I need to automate the process of stopping adjacent buffers overlapping. I've searched the archives and can't find a clear answer to this problem. I have created buffers for a road network. This ro

RE: MI-L Create unique index for Access tables in workspace?

Thanks for your help Mike and Andrew. I have had a good try at altering the workspace to load up the linked table (as suggested) but could do with some more help, as I do not seem to be getting anywhere. I want to open an Access table as a live table in MapInfo using code contained in a work

AW: MI-L Update Column by matching 2 fields

Susan, another workaround would be to create an additional column in both tables where you combine "col1+col2" with "update column". Make sure the combined column is type character otherwise it might summarize your data. Christine -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: Susan Yu [mailto:[EMAIL PRO
