Example

This example creates a bitmap object using the CreateBaseMap method.

 

Sub Main

'Declares mvApp as an object

 Dim mvApp As Object

 

'Creates an instance of the MapViewer Application object

'and assigns it to the variable named "mvApp"

 Set mvApp = CreateObject("MapViewer.Application")

 

'Makes MapViewer visible

 mvApp.Visible = True

 

'Declares Plot as an object

 Dim Plot As Object

 

'Creates a map document in MapViewer and assigns

'it to the variable named "Plot"

 Set Plot = mvApp.Documents.Add(mvDocPlot)

 

'Declares PlotLayers as an object

 Dim PlotLayers As Object

 

'Assigns the map document layers to the

'variable named "PlotLayers"

 Set PlotLayers = Plot.Layers

 

'Declares CurrentLayer as an object

 Dim CurrentLayer As Object

 

'Assigns the active plot layer to the

'variable named "CurrentLayer"

 Set CurrentLayer = PlotLayers.ActiveLayer

 

'Declares Bitmap as an object

 Dim Bitmap As Object

 

Set Bitmap = Plot.CreateBaseMap(FileName:= mvapp.ApplicationFolder + _

"\ samples\bitmap.tif")

End Sub
