  • 1.  Cursor location no longer showing the proper coordinates

    Hello, MI16 used to show me the cursor location in the respective Coordinate Format (except when I was using WMTS). In MI17 this is no longer the case. I am not using any WMTS layer,but the cursor location is somewhat cryptic. The projection used is shown correctly however. Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

    Hi

    They are probably using the Military Grid Reference instead of Decimal Degrees.

    You can change this in the Map Options dialog and if it keeps using this setting when you create a new map, you need to change the Preference for the Map.
