Disable creating a ghx file upon opening raster?
Nicholas G Lawrence
Hello all,
I am running MapInfo Pro v2019
Is there a way of disabling the creation of a ghx file upon opening a raster?
This specific raster is a ecw file and it is stored in a folder with read-only access.
My suspicion is that MapInfo wants to create a ghx file, but cannot as it lacks write access, and then fails.

Hi Nick
The GHX captures statistics from the raster when loaded through the new Raster Handlers.
If the folder is read-only, the GHX file should get stored in a temporary location.
You can try to uncheck the support for ECW from the advanced Raster support via Options, MapInfo Pro Raster, Preferences, Raster Formats.
You need to uncheck for both Native Formats and GDAL Formats.
You can a bit more information here:

GHX files are good.
MapInfo also creates a .pprc file.
We recommend opening the ecw (or tif) on a local drive, perhaps, before copying to the read-only location.
It is a one-off process.
