Hello All, I was interested in generating point X and Y coordinates in a random fashion within a polygon, which would be what the dot density thematic function does in MI. The difference is that I would like to be able to see the coordinates of such random placed points for further processing. Any ideas would be appeaciated. I can think of one way of doing it in MB but it seems to be a very awkward so I am not giving details here. Thank you in advance.
