One may ask why it is that when you cut part of the polygon off, it does not reset the centroid on the fly?

Select your polygons for editing 2. Choose Objects >> Convert to Polylines 3. Choose Objects >> Convert to Polygons It's a bit quirky, I know, but this method effectively regenerates the polygons and updates the polygon centroids according to MapInfo's standard algorithm. I can't recall exactly what this algorithm is, but a search through the archives should turn up something. I'm sure I read about it here once...
