the status bar is not very useful when you want to edit thematic maps.. I
keep the General tool palette floating, then it's just a clic on the layer
tool .. but it would be nice to have it permanently open, as you say. It
should also allow for customizable size (when you have a lot of layers)...
And since were are talking of wishes lists : when creating thematic maps
and using data in a separate table, it's a pain that you have to link the
same data table to your geographic table again and again, each time you
want to test a new variable. It doesn't help that the link command lies
down at the bottom of the variable list and that each time you need to
create a link you have to scroll down the whole list. It's also a pain if
you want to use manual intervals to create your thematic map instead of
automated intervals; now you have to enter each value twice (the higher
bond of a class is the lower bond of the next.. so this should be
automated) and the cursor doesn't even go automatically to the next value.

If all you are looking for is an easy way to make a layer editable you
should use the Editable list in the statusbar, where you quickly can
select the layer you want to edit.
Make sure you have your statusbar visible (see the Options menu if you
haven't)

Subject: MI-L Layer control tool
Hi everyone,
Is there a tool that would make my "layer contol" window stick on my
screen so I wouldn't have to open and close it each time I want edit a
layer. (stick beside my map window)
I sure hope there's a tool available instead of waiting for Mapinfo to
put it in there 8. something version.
I would also make a great christmas gift.... ;-)
