getMapScale

public double getMapScale()
                   throws IOException

Scale of the map as a representative fraction.

Description

This property is a shortcut to IMap::MapScale which itself is a shortcut to IDisplayTransformation::ScaleRatio.

Remarks

MapScale is the relationship between the dimensions of features on a map and the geographic objects they represent on the earth, commonly expressed as a fraction or a ratio. A MapScale of 1/100,000 or 1:100,000 means that one unit of measure on the map equals 100,000 of the same units on the earth.

Some common scales are as follows:

1:10,000 - large scale street level mapping
1:25,000 - large scale for topographical and leisure mapping
1:50,000 - large scale for topographical and leisure mapping
1:63,360 1 inch = 1 mile
1:500,000 - small scale state level mapping
1:2,000,000 - small scale national level mapping

Available with ArcGIS Engine.

Specified by:: getMapScale in interface IMapControl2
Specified by:: getMapScale in interface IMapControlDefault

Returns:: The returnValue
Throws:: IOException - If there are interop problems.; AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.
See Also:: IMapControl2.getReferenceScale(), IMapControl2.getSpatialReference(), IMapControl2.getMapUnits(), IMapControl2.getMap(), IMapControl3, IMapControl4

Reference scale of the Map as a representative fraction.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine.

Specified by:: setReferenceScale in interface IMapControl2
Specified by:: setReferenceScale in interface IMapControlDefault

Parameters:: rhs1 - The rhs1 (in)
Throws:: IOException - If there are interop problems.; AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

getReferenceScale

public double getReferenceScale()
                         throws IOException

Reference scale of the Map as a representative fraction.

Description

This property is a shortcut to IMap::ReferenceScale and is the scale to which all symbol and text sizes used in the Map will be made relative.

Remarks

A ReferenceScale set to 0 indicates that no ReferenceScale is set and is the default. When no ReferenceScale is set, the size of any symbols or text on the Map remains the same irrespective of MapScale. When a reference scale is set, the size of any symbols or text on the map changes as the MapScale changes. For example, text labels will get larger if you zoom in to a scale larger than the ReferenceScale and smaller if you zoom out to a scale smaller than the ReferenceScale.

Current active tool for the MapControl. Set to nothing to clear the tool.

Description

The CurrentTool is the Tool used to interact will the MapControl's display. Always check if a tool is enabled before setting it to the CurrentTool property, otherwise a user will be able to use a tool that is actually disabled.

Remarks

When the CurrentTool is set the following events occur:

The ITool::Deactivate event is triggered on the 'old' CurrentTool if one was set. If this event returns false a trappable error ocurrs. If this event returns true the 'old' CurrentTool is removed and replaced.
The ICommand::OnClick event is triggered on the 'new' CurrentTool and its cursor is picked up.

Within an ITool implementation it is recommended that the ITool::Deactivate event returns true. This allows a 'new' CurrentTool to be set, and allows the release of the CurrentTool when an application is shutting down.

  Set PageLayoutControl1.CurrentTool = pCommand

End If

When the CurrentTool is set the following events occur:

The ITool:: Deactivate event is triggered on the 'old' CurrentTool if one was set. If this event returns false a trappable error ocurrs. If this event returns true the 'old' CurrentTool is removed and replaced.
The ICommand:: OnClick event is triggered on the 'new' CurrentTool and its cursor is picked up.

Note that if the CurrentTool is set to Nothing, the ITool::Deactivate event is not triggered on the 'old' CurrentTool, instead it is forcibly removed. The same behaviour occurs if the PageLayoutControl is killed.

Loads a layer file and adds it to the Map's collection of layers at the specified index position.

Description

When a layer file is added to the MapControl's layer collection and no index is specified, it is added to the beginning or top of the collection with an index of 0. The numeric index of any other layers in the layer collection increments by one.

When a layer file is added and an index is specified, the numeric index of any other layers in the layer collection will increment by one, except for those layers with an index less than the specified index. The index of these layers will remain the same.

Remarks

The Layer at the beginning or top of the collection with an index of 0 will be drawn last, whilst the Layer at the bottom of the collection will be drawn first.

Use the MoveLayerTo method to change the position of a Layer within the layer collection.

                                  AutomationException

Suppress full redraw of control during resize operations.

Description

If the MapControl contains a lot of data, redrawing this data during a resize event can be costly. To increase performance you can suppress the data redraw until the resizing is complete with the SuppressResizeDrawing method. During the resize a stretched bitmap will be drawn instead.

Passing the suppressResize value sets the IScreenDisplay::SuppressResize property on the ActiveView. Pass True to suppress normal drawing and draw a stretched bitmap when a resize event begins. During the resize the data is not refereshed and the captured image is stretched. As such, the image can appear pixelated when a small display area is resized to a large display area. Pass False to resume normal drawing when a resize event ends.

In development environments that do not trap the beginning and end of a resize event, the MapControl can 'watch' the hwnd supplied to the SuppressResizeDrawing method. When a form or container starts resizing the WM_ENTERSIZEMOVE windows messge is sent and the MapControl will set suppressResize to True. When windows sends the WM_EXITSIZEMOVE message the form or container is released from resizing and the the MapControl will set suppressResize to False. Pass the hwnd of the form or container to the SuppressResizeDrawing method when the form or container is initialized. Passing an hwnd of 0 will stop the MapControl watching the hwnd.

Description

The MouseIcon property provides a custom icon that is used when the MousePointer property is set to esriPointerArrowHourglass (99).

Remarks

In most development evironments the control's property pages can be used to load either a cursor (.cur) or icon (.ico) file. A cursor contains a custom 'hotspot' location and can be any size. The 'hotspot' location for an icon file defaults to the center of the icon. This property cannot be used to load animated cursor (.ani) files.

To programatically create an object implementing IPictureDisp there is the win32 function OleLoadPicture or helper methods depending on the development environment.

Most development environments use the 'Arrow' keys to switch focus between the controls embedded in a form or container. In such environments the MapControl will not by default receive the 'Arrow' keys to pan the display. To ensure 'Arrow' keys are received by the MapControl the KeyIntercept property must be set to intercept the 'Arrow' keys in order to pan the display when AutoKeyboardScrolling is true.
