Mapinfo, MapX notes

1. after the geoset of MapX is transferred to geoset In the VB design environment, the attributes defined in the Custom dialog box of MapX are stored in the frm file. That is to say, the configuration changes are not stored back to the geoset file, it only works for this project. The original geoset file is still original.

2. after editing a Map Using Mapinfo, you can save the settings to a geoset file by setting attributes of each layer, including display and tagging, and saving information in a workspace file ), and then read it in VB. This workspace is similar to Supermap and ArcGIS, but easier.

3. Compared with Mo, MapInfo and MapX have much better interaction and convenience.

4. MapInfo can be used to set Automatic annotation fields. However, in MapX, it must be reset by programming. At least this information is not stored in the geoset file stored in mapinfo7. Therefore, it is best to set the annotation field as the first string field in the tab file during plotting. In this way, the automatic annotation will automatically select this field annotation.

5. When my MapInfo 7 exits, it does not remind me to save the workspace file or automatically save it, which is very bad.

6. In general, the 3 and 4 angel experience with Mapx and MapInfo is good, and some like this platform and software. :)
