>How do I change the location of a polygons centroid (probably
defeats the idea of it being a centroid!) More specifically I have
thematically created some bar graphs which once generated are
not where I wish them to be. Anyone know how I can drag them
into the right place?<
Dave,
Not real sure about the bar graphs, but I'd recommend you check to make
sure the centroid is where you think it is. In at least one case (mine), a
quirk in MI returns the lower left corner of a grid cell as the centroid
(MI 5.0). This forces me to add half the cell width to the X and Y
coordinated to get the real centroid. I didn't realize this until I forced
a graphical output (line) that indicated where the reported centroid was.
Good luck,
Steve Riese
PS I'm talking about grids created with the GRIDMAKR program that ships
with MI.
