RE: MI-L ECW / MrSid files

I was looking into this a couple of years ago, but unfortunately I didnt finish the job; however, my recollection is that I had been told by the people in the know(?) that it could be done (for MrSid at least) by doing a bit of fiddling. There are some files in the MapInfo\Professional directory,

If you are using MapBasic, you can use the CreateLine function. This should also work in your MapBasic Window... CJM -Original Message- From: Bob Regier [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 23 September 2000 01:27 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Bob Regier Subject: MI Geocoding Lines Hi, There are

RE: MI MBX vs MBO

2000-09-08 Thread Martin, Christopher (WSA Telford)
When you compile an MB file, if a Main() function is included, MapBasic compiles an MBX - a complete program. If there is not Main(), the compiler assume the code is part of a bigger project (MBP) and that is should be linked in with other MB/MBO files to produce a final MBX.   So if you a

I'm not aware of a more direct route (but that doesn't mean to say there isn't one!), but you can use the SDF COM Toolkit to manipulate (ie. read) your SDF's. If another lister can provide you with the necessary information to create TABs etc.. [The mapguide SDF loader can also create SDLs -

RE: MI Help with MapInfo Application Window resizing

I assume you want to do this in MapBasic? Use the ShowWindow API function. Declare Function ShowWindow& Lib "User32" (ByVal hwnd as Long, ByVal nCmdShow as Long) hwnd = window handle; use GetForegroundWindow or GetActiveWindow API calls... nCmdShow: SW_HIDE = 0 SW_MAXIMIZE = 3 SW_MINIMIZE = 6

We are wanting to include a number of scanned images in MI. Ideally we would like to manipulate the images in AutoCAD map (rotating,skewing etc.) before exporting as a TIF/TFW pair. What is the best/quickest/easiest route for this? As far as I can see MI will accept TIFs, but they must be registe

There is a resource editor included as part of the Visual Basic IDE, and there is also one included with C++ if you have access to either of these, though I'm sure there will be some freebies on the web somewhere... -Original Message- From: Malcolm Norman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent:
