Hi Mel,
I have found that if I remove the thematic layer from the map and reset 
the map's projection to NAD 83, it resets everything to appear correctly. 
It won't let me do this with the thematic layer on though.  It says 
something about not being able to reset a raster layer's projection. 
Unfortunately half of our files are in Long, Lat format, and the other 
half are in NAD 83. I am not too familiar with the code for CoordSys 
clauses and Units settings yet.  Could you maybe point me in the right 
direction?

Hi Erin! 

My guess is that you unintentionally change the projection, coordinate 
system or even maybe the units of the mapper window when you add the 
thematic layer. 
I agree that in theory layers in different projections can co-exist in a 
mapper, as long as you don't try to mix earth and non-earth stuff. 

Perhaps you have copied a chunk of code from a workspace? While this is a 
very useful way of creating code for recurring operations, one must check 
the code for surplus code which may cause conflicts with other settings in 
your application. Remember that a workspace script cannot take anything 
for granted, but must take control over the environment in which it will 
run. 
I should check the code for CoordSys clauses and Units settings, and make 
sure that they really are needed, or not in conflict. 

Hälsning / Best regards Mats.E

[MI-L] Thematic mapping








Hello everyone,
I am trying to generate a thematic map through an automated program . 
Every time I add in the thematic layer, the whole map gets shrunk and 
appears distorted vertically.  Has anyone encountered this and does anyone 

have a fix? All my layers are either Long, Lat format or in NAD 83.  I 
know this has an effect on how things appear when generated on a map layer 

together, but is there a way to display them all together without changing 

all of the file formats?
