Re: MI multiple raster image registration

Hi Grantley, I am writing to ask what may be a very simple question which has me stuck being a relatively novice user of MapInfo. I am using MI 6 Pro, and I have scanned two 1:100 000 maps which are both in the same projection and have the same datum information. Since what you scanned seem

Yes - snap - turn snap off and the problem is fixed. You can turn it back on again until it next happens. - another unnatural, involuntary finger movement for regular digitizers! - David Booth Senior GIS Officer Merseyside Information Service

Sum: MI Grabber Tool Problem

Many thanks to everyone for the advice. The consensus seems to be that it is a clash between the snap function and the grabber tool. Turning snap off before attempting to use the grabber should cure the problem. Bill Wemple from MapInfo also suggested reducing the acceleration of the video card

Re: MI select by color attribute

To select a polyline by colour: first determine the numeric code for the colour I can't recall how I did this. Maybe someone else has a good idea here. But you could create a thematic map with a colour set to the colour you want and then read the colour number from the mapbasic window at the

RE: MI units of measure in workspaces

No way but inches. I have banged my hand into that one several "versions" back. I guess that this is a non-paying issue for MI and they have avoided dealing with it. I had to design a metric layout and fine tuning would have been easy directly on the wor, but when you have to convert +.35mm in a

Something like the 'ArcPad' solution - a slim version of ArcView running on a Windows CE device? I also looked at that with some interest - a field tool that was handy in size, ran for a whole day on one set of batteries ... sounds ideal. But then reality set in: a competent WinCE machine is
