Overview of MapViewer Objects

Learning to use the MapViewer automation objects in a script may appear daunting at first. Most tasks, however, can be accomplished using just a few MapViewer objects. Once you become familiar with these primary objects and learn how to "drill through" the object hierarchy, you will be able to access most of MapViewer's features from your scripts.

 

The online help is the complete reference for all of the MapViewer automation objects, their properties, and their methods. The object model chart should serve as your guide for navigating through the object hierarchy.

 

This section shows how to access the MapViewer automation objects using the Scripter BASIC language. If you are not familiar with computer programming, you may benefit from a programming tutorial. See the Suggested Reading topic for recommendations.
