Various object information will appear when the user clicks on the Info tab. The following is an example of the type of data displayed when a user double-clicks on an address point object.

 

 

 

Map Object ID: 

Typically just the ID of the mapping object. In rare cases it will show multiline information as demonstrated above with an address object.

 


Group: 

Mapping file group name. May or may not match the Layer Menu group name.

Legend: 

Mapping file legend name. This is the name the user will see in the Layer Legend when printing an image of the map to paper. May or may not match the Layer Menu legend name.

Layer: 

Mapping file layer name.

Type: 

Type of map object: Text, Point, Polyline, Polygon, etc.

Priority: 

Mapping draw order priority between 1 and 100. The higher the number the higher the drawing order. 

 

For example, two polygon  layers having draw priorities of 40 and 50 would display the polygon layer with the 50 on top of the polygon with the draw priority of 40 in the mapping window.

 


 

Point/Text Object Location

X - Y: 

Arbitrary XY coordinates for a point object corresponding to NAD83/91 WA State Plane, South Zone, US Foot.

Lon - Lat: 

Longitude and Latitude coordinates (in decimal degrees) for a point object using the NAD83 coordinate projection system. 

 

Each point is the insertion point for a text feature in a text layer or a point feature in a point layer.

 


 

Line/Polygon Object Extents

MinMax 

X - Y: 

The minimum and maximum arbitrary XY bounding box coordinate points for a polyline or polygon object corresponding to NAD83/91 WA State Plane, South Zone, US Foot. 

MinMax 

Lon - Lat: 

The minimum and maximum Longitude and Latitude bounding box coordinate points for a polyline or polygon object (in decimal degrees) using the NAD83 coordinate projection system. 

 

The two bounding box point pairs are located at the bottom left and top right of the map object.
