I and my co-worker have experienced this problem while digitizing with MapInfo-Pro v.7.5 and I'd like to know if anyone else has encountered this problem, or if MapInfo is aware of it. We have digitized a lot using 6.0, 6.5, 7.0, and never seen this problem. I have a large rectangle which is set as my target. All the digitized objects are digitized into another table. When using these digitized objects to split into the target in a seperate table, occassionally we have noticed this problem. When 3 objects on the digitized layer overlap each other (not 2 or 4, but just 3), then the created object with the most overlap that has been created from the split in the target layer will show all the correct shapes, yet will still be the same object. So you have 2 adjacent objects, but they both are highlighted when you click on either of them. Then, if you try to combine them back together, they will both disappear and leave a blank spot. However, you can disaggregate them. BUT, if you try to disaggregate 3 of these types of objects at the same time, then they will all disappear. It's like some freakish problem with the number 3 or multiples of 3. So, in summary. 1 - take one large object. 2 - draw 3 overlapping objects on a seperate layer (a drawing table). 3 - set the first object as the target and then split the 3 overlapping objects into it all at once. 4 - of the 3 overlapping objects, the one that had the most overlap will cause this problem. 5 - Notice that the new object on your target layer that corresponds to the object in your drawing table with the most overlap has been split into pieces, but all the pieces still think they are part of the same object. 6 - If you try to combine them back together, the objects will disappear completely. 7 - You can disaggregate them into their parts. 8 - If you try to disaggregate 3 of these at the same time, they will disappear. Are we tripping on something, or have other people encountered this as well? MI-Pro 7.5 Intel P4-1.8mhz 512mb RAM Windows XP Pro SP-1 IE 6 SP-1
