Hello Everyone!
I'm trying to create how to select an icon without changing any code.
Here is what I'm trying to do (or would like to do):
I would like the user to be able to go to the menu bar and go to a menu
item that says: "Symbol"....Now when they hit on symbol I would like a
dialog similiar to Symbol Style to appear on their screen. I would then
like the user to be capable of choosing a symbol and the size and
reading the values into the piece of code below.---Basically the
sym_size and shape(ie.81..or whatever)...and I guess the fontname (ie,
MapInfo Trasnportation)...perhaps everything, but can I maniupulate that
Symbol Style Dialog?? It would be good if I could just limit the dialog
to font, symbol and color. Would I have to create a new dialog? and
if so can I use some of the code for the Symbol Style dialog found under
Options? I can't find where this dialog is created.
Thanks in advance!
