Thank you, I didn't look close enough because I disregarded RibbonInterface but I see there are many samples I missed there. I'll have a look! ------------------------------ Jonas Nordlund Software Developer Norconsult AB Sweden ------------------------------

Adding background tasks

Found In Egroup: MapInfo Pro Developers User Group \ view thread
Hi! I've been unable to find documentation on how to add a MapInfo Pro background task via the .NET API. The type IMapInfoApplication has a collection of BackgroundTasks. So, if MIApp is an instance that implements that interface, I can do: MIApp.BackgroundTasks.AddTask(task); However, how ...

RE: MS Office update - MapInfo Pro v17.0.4.3 link to Access database no longer working

Just a quick follow up for anyone coming across it: We fixed this by linking to our Access tables with Server Link Table rather than Register Table with Type Access. Maybe it could also be fixed with Register Table with Type ODBC and a Microsoft Access connection string. I never tried that, but ...

Hi! I'm unsure how this relates to MapInfo Access support working until Office is updated? You're saying that MapInfo needs to have been originally installed with administrator rights for it to survive Office updates? ------------------------------ Jonas Nordlund Software developer Norconsult ...

We have experienced the same problem here on installs involving the following Windows 10 editions so far (does not seem to be bound to Windows version): Microsoft Windows 10 Pro 10.0.17134 Microsoft Windows 10 Pro 10.0.19041 Microsoft Windows 10 Pro 10.0.18362 Microsoft Windows 10 Pro 10.0.16299 ...

RE: Integrated Mapping and MapInfo file dependencies

First, I had completely missed the SetDllDirectory call. Interesting -- I'll definitely look into that further! Thanks for the sample code. The missing map reparenting support in MapInfo Pro 64-bit COM rings a bell and that did cause it to not be an option for our flagship GIS application. However, ...

RE: OSM Roads Table Error

Yes, I noticed this recently too. I heard something about it could be due to OSM's change of server software which is more picky about the http headers that MapInfo is using?

RE: MapBasic IDE

Found In Egroup: MapInfo Pro Developers User Group \ view thread
Very interesting and exciting to see this! I think it's the correct approach to use existing IDE's to not have to reinvent the wheel, but rather use powerful extension systems like in VS Code! (great choice of editor) It basically "just" needs three things for me to think it being vastly more useful ...

Integrated Mapping and MapInfo file dependencies

Found In Egroup: MapInfo Pro Developers User Group \ view thread
Hi! The "official approach" here has always been a bit unclear to me, and now I remembered to ask! Background: We build multiple import & export routines to/from our GIS application that is using MapInfo as its map engine. E.g. importing details daily from customer or billing systems into MapInfo ...

OK, so read only support and that from SHP files. I hope that TAB and/or server databases (as in supported by MAPINFO_MAPCATALOG) will get the opportunity to store elevation data in the future. Unfortunately separate point layers or other methods to get here are suboptimal as you get two different sources ...

Formats with Z and M value read/write support for individual nodes in polylines?

Found In Egroup: MapInfo Pro Developers User Group \ view thread
Hello! I understand that MapBasic supports e.g. ObjectNodeZ/M to read this per-node data along a polyline, and you can check for data source support with ObjectNodeHasM/Z. I have a few questions though: Which formats or databases that MapInfo Pro supports also supports this data, including with write ...
