Hello, The MapInfo Line Style Editor can be found at http://testdrive.mapinfo.com/mipro and is called MILISTED On the subject of TRANSCAD, I would be particularly interested to know who in the Transport Consultancy field uses TRANSCAD, paticularly in the UK. I find myself having to display outputs from TRIPS and EMME/2, and still haven't found a satisfactory answer to the 2 way bandwidth problem, as when using offset lines with thematic widths produces unreliable results...

I just put 1,2,3...,10 pixels off the center line and I can display multiple dataset on the same line/pline. But, I'm limited to 128 line styles within a *.PEN file, so I have to sacrifice existing line Style or swap *.PEN files between each workspace. I don't know exactly where to find the application, but I think it's on http://www.mapinfo.com site. Surely someone know the exact URL. Have a nice day...

I have only seen this functionality within another GIS package called TRANSCAD marketed by Maptitude. This software was written specifically for transportation modelling but has a useful display function of being able to display parallel lines/polylines and not polygons with filled patterns. Any ideas?
