MI can display labels for each of the multiple sections of a polyline (option in label requester) but it cannot do it for a multiple polygon regions. It is a simple logical restriction associated with the topology of these objects: Mi does not store logical differences between internal polygons defining "holes" (donut situation) and external ones defining "islands" (the first kind would not require labelling, the second type would).
I think that you would need to build a special table just for labelling by exploding (disaggregating) all your regions while keeping real donuts as one region. (option "retain holes in regions" of the "objects | disaggregate" menu command" ) Jacques Paris e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] MapBasic-MapInfo support http://www.paris-pc-gis.com -----Original Message----- From: Apers Mathieu [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 27-Jun-04 23:27 To: Mapinfo help forum (E-mail) Subject: MI-L Multiple labels for a single object Hi all i have a small but annoying problem I have a table of objects (polygons) which i label with their respective "walk_names" my problem is that some of my objects have more than one polygon. I want to label all polygons. I cannot disaggregate the polygon as that will throw out my figures, and i'm stumped. Please help.
