32 Tutorial 2: Working with Data
Shadow Cursors with Dynamic Link
Click this button to create a dynamic link between one or more maps and data (in
Spreadsheet and Profile windows) to assist in locating and comparing data,
profiles and maps.
If you have plotted flight lines on your map, you can use this button to
dynamically link the map to the database and profiles.
When you move the Shadow cursor on the map, the database and profile views
will update to show the corresponding data. If the corresponding data are in a
different database line, then the spreadsheet window will automatically display
this line. When you select a value in the database or a point on a profile, the
Shadow cursor will update in the map view.
Toggle Auto-Redraw
Click this button to toggle the Auto-Redraw option on/off. The Auto-Redraw
option refreshes/redraws a map automatically after changes are made to it. When
this option is ON any changes made to the map contents will cause the map to be
refreshed/redrawn. This includes editing changes, group selection changes, or
changing the rendering order of a group.
If the Auto-Redraw is OFF the map is only refreshed on zoom, pan, or if the
refresh button is pressed.
A refresh button has also been added to the Map View/Group Manager
dialog to support this feature. If the Auto-Redraw option is off, and you
make changes to the groups in the Map View/Group Manager, click this
button to refresh and show your changes on the map. This is useful for
displaying your changes when moving groups in front or behind each other.
By default Auto-Redraw is initially ON.
You can also access this command by clicking the right mouse button on a map
and selecting Redraw from the popup menu.
