Re: MI-L Line Editor Tool (LineEdit.exe)

Offset line styles on polygons (with or without holes) seem to work ok with the following notes: 1. Draw a complementary top and bottom offset as separate styles in milisted.exe , so regardless of the direction of the poly, one will provide the desired inside or outside style. I drew a solid polyl

I think what you want is: 1. see if layer.visible = true 2. see if the bounds of the layer intersect the bounds of the current map window. Layer.bounds and map.bounds both return rectangle objects. IntersectionTest (layerbounds,mapbounds,testtype) will show whether the layer intersects the map w

Hi. I believe the quickest way to add features to a layer in MapX is to use layerinfo and a features collection, although I havent tested against the adding a feature at a time approach. So rather than doing an ADDFEATURE for each object, append the objects to a features collection and then add th
