Re: MI Pie chart - pies size question
As far as I see you have only one (half) alternative to the use of the WinChangedHandler and Set Shade commands. This is to make a rutine that builds the pie chart based on region-objects. It'll be quite time-consuming when you build it, but then, the pie's will stay constant in size regardless of the map zoom. Unfortunately you'll also get a theme that stay fixed, with no automatic updating when the attributes changes. I've stayed with exactly the same problem and did not found any other solution. I'll make an extra Shade-option, solving this problem, a wish for comming versions of MapInfo.

I have a question regarding pie chart. When you zoom the map, pies are changing their sizes. But, the customer wants the pies to have constant size regardless of the map zoom. Currently, I use WinChangedHandler and Set Shade command every time the map zoom changes, but this is time-consuming when number of pies is 10,000+. Can anyone recommend better solution?

MI ODBC connection to Ingres 6.4
I've connected to Ingres 6.4 running on Vax/Vms. Fetching data to MapInfo is very slow. Ten thousand rows can take few hours.What might be the reason? Something with Ingres configuration? There is nobody else using Ingres, Vax or the network.

RE: MI registering CAD drawings
You don't need special software. MapInfo pro will do this. If you receive the autoCad drawing in DXF format, you need to import it using the mapinfo /table/import option, and not the Universal Translator. The /table/import lets you define 2 known points to register to, and UT doesn't. You only have to make sure the drawing is in north-up format. If not, it will end up very distorted. If this is the case, you can rotate the drawing with autocad before importing. If what you received is a .DWG drawing and you don't have Autocad to make a DXF, you can 1)import it with the UT, in non-earth coordinates. 2) Export it with /table/export, DXF format 3) import it again with mapinfo /table/import/, specifying the required projection / Transformation. Good luck.

MI 5.5 patch problem
I have a TIFF that has stopped displaying, apparently after I installed the 5.5 patch. It displays as all black on the patched version of MI 5.5, but displays correctly on un-patched versions of MI 5.5. Has anyone else experienced this? Have you found a workaround?

RE: MI 5.5 patch problem
I unfortunately don't have a solution for you. I'm just wondering if you know what type of problems the patch is intended to fix. I was given the disk but was unable to install it properly, most likely due to a flaw in the disk itself though.

MI: Problems with MapInfo resetting page size in batch printing program
A client of mine is having trouble with the printer settings changing while batch printing using a customised program that automates printing maps of farms. The system uses a map template to print the farms to a scale. The template is specific to a page size and it allows the user to check the page settings on the layout before going off and printing all farms in the batch (sometimes up to 300). At this point the user makes sure the printer settings are set to A3 (this is set to default anyway for that printer) using MapInfos own printer set up. Once the user confirms that the printer settings are correct, it goes off and prints all the farms. The program does not use layouts or existing workspaces to run. It generates fresh layouts for each farm programatically using a MapInfo map with objects representing each type of feature to set the size and placement of the windows when creating the layout. The problem is that after a random number of farms, the printer starts p rinting as though the MapInfo settings are for an A4 page. Checking in MapInfo afterwards shows the printer as being set to A3 still. No rhyme or reason as to when this problem will occur is apparent evidently. The problem did not exist with version 5.0 of MapInfo. We have tried 1. making the printer a local printer (normally it is shared) to remove the interactions of the network; 2. making sure it is the default printer for that computer, and 3. making sure that A3 is the default setting for that printer. The printer is a HP 1120C. I am asking them to try printing to a different printer to see if the problem only exists for HP printers (again). Has anyone else had problems along this line, and even better found a cause? I suspect that it is something to do with the new printer selection features of MapInfo, but it is hard to check because it is one of those random errors.

Re: MI Where can I find a Map of China
Brigette, Try this site. You can download vector data of the world. You can get zipped .e00 (Arcinfo export) files. When desired files are extracted, you have to convert them into Mapinfo Tab files with Arc tools which is already handled on Mapinfo as a Mapbasic tool. http://www.maproom.psu.edu/dcw/ Hiko Kazuhiko Yamashita Division of Marine Engineering, Kokusai Kogyo co. ltd 3-6-3 Hakataeki-higashi, Hakata-ku, Fukuoka 812-0013 Japan Phone: +81-92-431-7277 FAX: +81-92-431-7275 -- To unsubscribe from this list, send e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and put "unsubscribe MAPINFO-L" in the message body, or contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
