MI projecting on the fly

It was my understanding that vector coverages in different projections can be mixed willy-nilly, technically speaking, within a map window, and each would be reprojected on-the-fly to that windows projection as defined by the raster base projection. In a discussion with technical support at a

MI: tfwread.mbx, a warning

I've been vexed for some time by various raster images not aligning correctly along edges or when overlain. You may have read some of my queries to this list made while searching for an answer. Here is the answer: I'd been using tfwread.mbx to import the tiffs. This was apparently a bad move.

I have a table of borings with formation data. The structure is something like this: Boring Formation Top Bottom AS 0 2 AF 2 22 AD 22 32 AR 32 150 B

MI labelr tool

As recently discussed here, I tried using the labelr tool to convert autolabels to a separate text layer. Problem : I set the view in the map window at 1:24 000 and autolabel a point layer w/ font size = 8 pt. Scenario A.If Labelr is then run only labels within the map window are

MI VM: edit Z of individual pixels?

I've a series of DEMs (USGS origin) that need some editing. How can the Z value of a particular pixel be changed? My goal is to smooth obviously incorrect values with their neighboring values. Here's what I have been able to do (using VM2.1.1/MI5.5, no MB yet): 1. Successfully selected

MI ellipse object creation behavior

I would like to create ellipses -- circles, actually -- of a specific radius by the click-and-drag method. The open Ruler window indicates a radius, but upon releasing the mouse button the radius of the resulting circle is not that length: it is shorter when the zoom is wider than the circle and

SUM: MI cannot Update Column

Thanks to the many people who pointed out that the table must be packed to perform an Update Column. Exactly my problem. Other solutions were also suggested, however, and may be valuable to others: --J. Chioles recalled if the first column of a table to dump into from another is integer

MI DOQs will not overlay

I've two DOQs. The first has a 1m resolution, the second was created by resampling the first at a 2 m resolution. Both .tfw files are identical. I registered them using Georeg.mbx. When opened, both appear automatically within the same mapper, suggesting to me that they are, indeed, in the

MI VM: Not all records in point table updated

Esteemed colleagues: I performed a Point Inspection on a hypsographic grid. Rather than finding a new column with elevation data for each record, I found a new column with elevation data for exactly 199 records (out of ~5000). The selection of records seems to have been random. Is

MI Open Workspace error

MI: Overlay symbols

I'm trying to show two different attributes of point data, one attribute ordinal, the other nominal, by varying color and symbol type. Had this great idea to do so by overlaying thematic maps. Apparently only one thematic map can be visible at a time, however. Is there another method? Drew

MI BM: Does this have basic functionality

Mappers: I've been using Borehole Mapper (v 1.01) for awhile now, and am perplexed at some seemingly fundamental problems with it. What are your experiences? Are these problems congenital, or is there something that I can do about them? 1. Plot Multiple Logs: After selecting N logs, only N-1

MI regions are lines in thematic map?

I'm trying to create a thematic map of a table of polygons, but the only available display style parameters are for lines. The result is solid colored regions. What gives? I wonder if the creation method had some effect: 1. Drew polygons 2. Converted them to polylines for editing 3.

SUM: MI: Universal Translator causes crash

Thanks to all those who responded. Several suggested that the crash was caused by a bug with VM; UT would work with VM not running. A patch was created for the bug and is included in recent versions of MI. I am using MI 5.0 and thus the solution had to be sought elsewhere. Today's solution:
