Hi,
There is a peculiar problem I am facing with mapinfo.
The steps I take are as follows:
1. Open a table with map point type object and select the point type object
using mouse.
2. Using mapinfo menu: Map|options
3. In the mapbasic window execute the statement: Set map xy units "m"
4. Double click the point object selected earlier. The values displayed are
in meters.
5. Now execute the statement: Set map xy units "degree"
6. Double click the point object selected earlier. The values displayed are
in degrees.
7. But exectuting centroidx(selection.obj) and centroidy(selection.obj) in
the above two situations do not give values in two different unit systems
instead continue to give values in only one unit system for eg: meters in
case of TM coordinate system as per the current coordinate system.
I need to convert the units using mapbasic statement(from a program) to get
similar results as observed when I double click the point object.
Thanks in advance,
Bikram
