Hi List,
I have a map window that I know the name of property_enquiries.
How can I convert this name into a map window id? The kind that will be
accepted by a command such as;
Set Map Window window_id Layer 1 Display Off

This Problem has been around for years. I thought it was more to do
with the way the region is shaded/filled in the postscript language.
MapInfo is not the only application that this happens with.
I have encountered a different problem

All,
I have a question regarding region objects and their lengths. Is it at
all possible to work out the 'length' of a region object in MapInfo? I
have long thin polygons that represent hedgerows and I would like to
work out the length
I have a number of tables with the following coordsys statement in the MIF
file
CoordSys Earth Projection 1, 0
In the map window, it comes up as lat/long projection, but no datum is
mentioned.
What datum is 0? I can't find it listed in the manual.

Hello List,
I have a mapinfo table in which not all records have spatial objects.
I am writing a MapBasic script in which I pick out those spatial objects
that are lines, and perform a buffer on the lines.
My problem is, the script fails every time I encounter a record that has no
spatial

Just how do we make feature suggestions for MapInfo?
Does MapInfo read this list?
Is there a place on the MapInfo web site where feature suggestions can be
logged?
Does MapInfo have a contact person who can be emailed

Does anyone out there know of an .MBX or a way to create honeycomb-shaped
grid cells in MapInfo Pro? Ideally, the ability to vary the sizes
created
would be best.
Any insights would be

Bottom line: yes, you'd need to use VB.net or C# with Pro.net, not
MapBasic
Obviously, the next two questions are;
1) How _easy_ is VB.net to learn?
2) What is the cost of a VB.net compiler vs the mapbasic

But has there been any discussion of MapInfo vs AutoCAD?
I bring this up because, over the last few years, CAD software has been

method allows for MapInfo to be installed remotely, across the whole
department.

Unfortunately, SHP seems the universal exchange format. I would prefer it
to
be MIF/MID.
How about GML (Geographic Markup Language)? If both MapInfo and ArcInfo
could
read/write GML, then this problem would be solved.

One very useful command would be the command to make a directory.
Currently I have to;
1) write a batch file containing the command to make a directory
2) execute the batch file
3) delete the batch file again

A twist on this question.
Is there a way of calculating the maximum internal rectangle?
That is, the largest rectangle (of any angle) that fits inside a polygon.
Such a thing would be useful as a text box for labelling.

So you actually think that ESRI only made the Shape format open,
because they have(had planned for a new non open format ;-)
Well, MapInfos .tab can't be called open aswell, even though
there is a open source hack to the table (MITAB).
If you think about, what format should you actually use if
What _would_ be convenient is if the mapinfo line styles were
arranged in a similar fashion to the mapinfo point styles.
That is, many categories, each category holding many linestyles.
The current maximum limit of linestyles is really quite low.

The preferred method is to wrap the msi inside a NAL object. But we are
