Good morning, good day, and for some good evening.

Thanks heaps.  Great help from those who replied.  I forgot to mention that
the purpose of this exercise was to label each polygon using the centroid.
When the centroid was moved, the labeling was visually unpleasant.

Jacques Paris, Peter Meier, and Jason Adam provided the solution of
selecting the offending polygons, converting them to polylines, and then
converting them back to regions.  This worked wonders.

Also thanks to Lise Leclerc and Carol Sheehan for their insight on the
topic.

I new I could count on you M-L.

Thanks again

Subject: MI Polygon Reshape Centroid problem


Good morning, good day, and for some good evening.

I have an interesting problem that is bugging me.  When I reshape some
polygons their centroid stays exactly where it was originally.  If I copy a
polygon, then reshape the overlying polygon, followed by reshaping the
underlying polygon to snap to the first one, only one of the two polygons
retains the correct Centroid position.

Is this a bug?  Is there a fix?  Am I not doing the process correctly?

Any solutions or nifty tools to re-assign a polygon's centroid would be very
helpful.

Thanks all
