MapXtreme 7.0 Themes Cant customize the styles

[Gabe]

Hi

I maintain  a Desktop application using MapXtreme 7.0 and I have
trouble finding much documentation or useful examples (I do have the
pdfs, samples etc that come on the install discs)

Currently I am trying to programmaticly apply an IndividualValueTheme
to a FeatureLayer.  I can apply a standard default theme,  I can also
show a ModifyIndValueThemeDlg and let the user change the theme.
However what I want to do is apply my own theme to the layer without
user intervention.

The following code attempts to do this but results in the Layer
showing with the default IndividualValueTheme (ie not with my styles)

Any help would be greatly appreciated

void ApplyTheme(FeatureLayer lyr)
{
if (lyr.Modifiers.Contains(HarvOpsTheme) ||
lyr.Modifiers.Contains(HarvOpsRangedTheme))
return;

HarvOpsTheme = new IndividualValueTheme(lyr, "iOperationType",
"HarvOpsTheme");

lyr.Modifiers.Append(HarvOpsTheme);

HarvOpsTheme.Bins[0].Style.ApplyStyle(GetHollowAreaStyle(Color.FromArgb(255,
255, 0)));
HarvOpsTheme.Bins[1].Style.ApplyStyle(GetHollowAreaStyle(Color.FromArgb(0,
255, 0)));
HarvOpsTheme.Bins[2].Style.ApplyStyle(GetHollowAreaStyle(Color.FromArgb(128,
128, 0)));
HarvOpsTheme.Bins[3].Style.ApplyStyle(GetHollowAreaStyle(Color.FromArgb(192,
128, 0)));
HarvOpsTheme.Bins[4].Style.ApplyStyle(GetHollowAreaStyle(Color.FromArgb(0,
128, 0)));
HarvOpsTheme.Bins[5].Style.ApplyStyle(GetHollowAreaStyle(Color.FromArgb(0,
205, 128)));
HarvOpsTheme.Bins[6].Style.ApplyStyle(GetHollowAreaStyle(Color.FromArgb(255,
0, 0)));

HarvOpsTheme.Apply(HarvOpsTheme);
HarvOpsTheme.RecomputeStyles();

lyr.Invalidate();
}

AreaStyle GetHollowAreaStyle(Color color)
{
return new AreaStyle
{
Interior = StockStyles.HollowFillStyle(),
Border = new SimpleLineStyle(new LineWidth(1,
LineWidthUnit.Pixel), 1, color)
};
}

Thanks

I guess no-one here can help with this. 

The MapXtreme documentation is weak and there doesnt seem to be much of a community for it.

Unfortunately I have to maintain a MapXtreme app,  I really want to completely remove MapXtreme but at this stage we havent got the resources for that.  So I am asking can anyone point me towards any MapXtreme support ?

I think there's a forum for mapXtreme on MapInfo's web site under Support. Since I don't do much with NapXtreme these days, I haven't looked into it very much.

Unfortunately the Mapinfo forums have been 'retired' I found an old link to the correct forum (http://community.mapinfo.com/forums/forum.jspa?forumID=88) but that gives a 404 error after searching there I found a page that says this:

The MapInfo Online Forums have been closed. For an alternative please see the MapInfo-L Google Group found here:  http://groups.google.com/group/mapinfo-l?pli=1  Or please see our Technical Support page:  http://www.pbinsight.com/support  The first link is this group and the Tech support page just lists the inadequate (for this task) documentation I mentioned previously.  It does have a contact email so I have sent them a message. Thanks for your efforts.
