Adding Layers to a Background Map Project
(Continued from previous paragraph.)
You can add as many layers as necessary to build a back-
ground map. Layers may be SHP files or MIF files.
For example you could export to SHP ou MIF the features of
a completed job and then add them as layers to create a back-
ground map. In this case you would merge these features into
the background map and so they would no longer be select-
able as individual entities on the Map Display area.
- Click , or on the menu bar, select
Layer>Add..
. A dia-
log box opens in which you should indicate the folder
where to find the layer and then select the file corre-
sponding to that layer.
- In the combo box located in the lower part of the dialog
box, select the coordinate system on which the layer to
be added is based. (
You are supposed to know this infor-
mation ).
- Click on the
Open
button. The selected file now appears
as a layer in the first row of the Create Map window:
- Resume the previous steps as many times as necessary to
add all the layers you need for your background map.
- Select
File
and then
Save
or
Save As
. In the dialog box that
opens, choose a folder and enter a name for the back-
ground map project you want to create. This project will
have the “mmp” extension.
- Then click
Save
to save the project.
