Hey Folks -- We already have a number of maps on our server for Spectrum organized by state (AR, CO, FL, etc). When we upload a file into SSA, it looks like it just copies the file into the folder above where they are now. Is there a way we can add files to SSA without having to "upload" them - perhaps ...

It's great that we got an extension on the expiration date on the new MapInfo Pro, but it looks like we will be seeing this initially frightening message pop up between now and March. Sure would be great if Precisely would fix their problem with the Serial Numbers and Access Codes! -- Steve ...

Hey Sharon -- Look at the fields in the table -- is there one that carries some type or description that corresponds with what you want themed? Then just create a thematic map "Individual" region values and that should get you there. Hope this helps, -- Steve ------------------------------ ...

After many years of Pro upgrades, I've recently started installing new versions into a separate (non-default) folder so I may easily go back to the prior version should I need to. I already found some MapBasic scripts that ran fine under the prior version but will fail under the new one. Now that we ...

Before MapInfo got better label tools, I used to move centroids around in certain layers I used often, so the automatic labels would be positioned better inside the regions. ------------------------------ Steve ...

You are correct. MapInfo Pro does not create a true center-of-mass centroid. From what I know of their process, it is the center of the minimum bounding rectangle of the object.
