MapInfo Pro

Hi Peter,

Do you know where I can obtain a version of MapCAD tool that is compatible with 64bit?

Thanks,

Stuart

Thanks for that, Peter.

This is definitely different from the Split Region tool in MapCAD in Mapinfo 15 32bit. That one was very easy to use. You just selected an object in an editable layer, selected the Split Region tool and drew a line through the object. It then split the polygon there and then. Great tool as it circumvented the whole palaver around drawing your polyline first and setting targets objects etc.

The Split Region using Polyline tool is different in that it seems to want target settings. So far, I've not got it working, but I'll keep trying.

Does anybody know what happened to the Split Region tool that was in MapCAD mbx for Mapinfo 15 (32 bit)? Did it come over to Mapinfo 17?

Thanks,

Stuart

Hi Mike,

Thanks for that. But the process you listed...

"

1. make layer editable
2. select polygon
3. set target
4. select polygon again
5. draw polyline
6. select polyline
7. use the tool to select "Split Target Using Polyline"

"

... is very different from the Split Region tool in the MapCAD tool bar in Mapinfo 15.

The Split Region tool works like this...

·         Make layer editable and select the polygon you want to split

·         Select Split Region tool

·         Click outside of polygon object

·         Starting clicking (following a street, for example) through the polygon

·         Double click outside of the target.

The polygon then splits. Easy!

Thanks,

Stuart

Do you have the Split Region tool? Where is it? I can't find it in MI 17. Can you send me a screenshot/s, please.

Thanks,

Stuart

Thanks for that Mike.

Yes, I have that tool. But again, it's just not the same as Split Region in the MapCAD tool bar in MI 15. With these tools you still have to create e a polyline object and set target etc..

However the Split Region tool in the MapCAD tool bar in MI 15 didn't require any of that palaver. You just selected the polygon you want to split, and use the Split Region tool to split it wherever you click through the polygon. Easy.

Maybe the tool doesn't exist anymore.

I've tried both.

Peter, are you free for a quick call about this?
