Another solution is to create a view in the database that has your coordinate columns twice (with different names). When you make this view mappable, MapInfo will only hide the columns used to create the point Peter Horsbøll Møller GIS Developer, MTM Geographical Information IT COWI A/S

RE: [MI-L]: Variables for filling out fields on a layout

Thanks to Ethan, Bill and Lars for getting back to me on this one. The best way to go about this appears to be to place text objects on the layout that start with an @ character, search for these pieces of text, and then update the text with the values you want displayed on your layout. What

Anirban, I've created a seamless layer with around 3,000 rasters, but I don't know the upper limit. It's been suggested to me before that MI works best with fewer large rasters. If you can sitch your smaller rasters into a large one, then I'd do that. Tim -Original Message- From: [EMAIL

Ang. [MI-L] Symbol Sizes

2006-06-09 Thread Mats Elfström
Hi Lee! Nope, not in MapInfo today. Best you can do is to use zoom visibility, so that the symbol layer turns off at a certain scale. A way of simulating symbol scaling is to add the same layer twice to the mapper, and use two sizes of symbols and then let the instance with smaller symbols
