Frankly, I'm amazed by this, as it is the forum recommended by Mapinfo.
Surely anyone with a large user base would be interested in contributing and
taking part? If not, it seems that an awareness raising exercise is needed.

Sorry for the delay in responding. I've been on the road, one of our
engineers
brought this question to my attention.
I don't consider the user base that requests these other features as more
important than the MapInfo-L community, rather equally important.
Unfortunately,
I don't have the resources to do everything that everyone wants. I must
compromise.
The main fact to keep in mind is that although MapInfo-L represents a large
and wonderfully vocal community of MapInfo Professional users, it is only
a subset and only one channel for user feedback. As much as we would love
to address all the issues raised on MapInfo-L, we must also keep our large
corporate customers, some of whom don't even know about MapInfo-L, happy.
They, and even other groups of users, are the ones requesting these other
features.
I hope that we have included enough of the type of changes requested on
MapInfo-L such as invert selection, better object processing, and a longer
frequently-used-files list. If not, I hope I can continue to count on this
forum to let us know.
Thankful, as always,
Andrew Dressel
MapInfo Professional Product Manager
