Afternoon All,
We have been generating some MID/MIF from an application written in Visual Basic.
When we import the data into MapInfo we are seeing some odd behaviour. Some of the
text is being placed incorrectly and sized wrong. The following is an extract from
the MIF file:
Text
"Tongue"
435190.047672707 392426.393545567 435198.4 392428.45
Font ("Verdana", 0, 0, 0)
Angle 14.5
pline 5
435190.448280714 392426.393545567
435190.047672707 392427.942581791
435197.999391994 392429.999036225
435198.4 392428.45
435190.448280714 392426.393545567
Text
"Gutter"
435201.434535835 392430.15 435208.208814396 392435.652956545
Font ("Verdana", 0, 0, 0)
Angle 44.2
pline 5
435202.55 392430.15
435201.434535835 392431.297056972
435207.093350232 392436.800013518
435208.208814396 392435.652956545
435202.55 392430.15
The first item of text is the one that appears correctly (the plines will draw an
outline of where the text should appear on the map). The second item of text
("Gutter") does not appear within the second pline element as it should. For some
reason MapInfo imports the text larger than it should be and in the wrong place.
Why?
I can see no reason why this should be happening - can anyone else?
Many thanks for any help that can be provided
Regards,
Colin Henderson
