A: There is only one terrain cache allowed in a scene. You can combine the two copies of terrain cache data and add the combined data to the scene via the Combine Tin Cache command from the TIN Terrain dropdown list in the 3D Data group on the Data tab.
09 Jul,2019 idesktopA: Import an Excel table into iDesktop to get a tabular dataset, convert it into a point dataset, and then convert a field in the point dataset into text objects of a text dataset with the Field to Text conversion method.
09 Jul,2019 idesktopA: Thematic maps do not support selection style setting. You can place the original dataset on top of the thematic map and set the style of the layer to null. After that, set the custom selection style for the original layer. Alternatively, you can set the thematic map to not selectable, and set the custom selection style for the original layer.
09 Jul,2019 idesktopA: You can turn off the prompts through the Save panel in Options of the File menu.
09 Jul,2019 idesktopA: Add the line data for roads and the oblique imagery data to the scene, select the road layer, set the Altitude Mode to Clamp to Object on the Styles tab to clamp the roads to the oblique imagery model data.
09 Jul,2019 idesktopA: There are errors in the C:\ProgramData\SuperMap\Configuration\UserConfig.config file. You can delete it and start iDestkop normally. After startup, a new UserConfig.config file will be generated in this directory.
09 Jul,2019 idesktopA: Yes, you can convert maps in mxd format and symbol resources in .style format into maps and symbols of SuperMap formats with Conversion Plugin downloaded from Plugin Manager. In addition, you can contact us to get the plugin.
09 Jul,2019 idesktopA: 1. Filter objects for display by setting the filter expression to display only the geometric objects that satisfy the condition in the map layer. 2. Object size filter display. You can filter out some objects that are too small to avoid negatively affecting the display speed. You can set the minimum size of objects for display, so that objects with the screen length of the minimum bounding box less than less than or equal to the specified size will be filter out (except point objects). 3. Text height filter display. You can set the filter expression to display only text objects within the specified text height range on the map. 4. Layer display control. There may be dozens or hundreds of layers in some maps, and some layers may not need to be displayed (for example, a thematic map has been created for a vector layer, and the original vector layer is not necessary to display in the map). 5. Layer scale filter display. In the current map, a layer will not display at a scale smaller than or greater than the current scale. 6. Fixed scales. When the amount of data for mapping is large, the speed for zooming out and zooming in operations may be affected. You can set a series of fixed scales to display the map only at the specified fixed scales to enhance the performance. 7. Generate cache for the map.
09 Jul,2019 idesktopA: Paths for models stored in the kml file are absolute paths. After copying the kml file to another computer or another place, you need to modify the paths for models after opening the kml file, E:/SuperMap/supermap-idesktop-9.0.0-31961-win64-bin-zip- chs /Resources /RealspaceEditor /3D / Model/SpringTree.SGM for instance.
09 Jul,2019 idesktopA: Yes, you can open GoogleMap online maps through Open Web Datasource?GoogleMaps?Select the second option for Service Address to open GoogleMaps. If blank maps display, you can solve the issue following the suggestions below: 1. Clear cache in the bin folder. 2. Input the account for Google.
09 Jul,2019 idesktopA: Yes, you can convert values from square degrees to square meters. The unit for values is square degrees because the projection unit for the data is degrees. You can first convert the data into a projected coordinate system in meters, and then create a new field user_area to store values in square meters copied from the smarea field. Finally, you can covert the data back to the geographic coordinate system in degrees.
09 Jul,2019 idesktopA: Yes, while customizing a projected coordinate system, you can select km as the unit while specifying projection parameters.
09 Jul,2019 idesktopA: Open the line symbol library, double click the target line symbol to enter the line symbol editor, check the line symbol properties, and uncheck the Fixed Color option.
09 Jul,2019 idesktopA: The reason for this phenomenon is probably that there are composite objects in these objects. It is recommended that you decompose all composite objects before creating buffers.
09 Jul,2019 idesktopA: It may be because the tolerance of the point dataset is too large. It is recommended that you check the properties of the point dataset, if the tolerance of the dataset is not 0, click the clear button and then do the spatial query again to get the correct result.
09 Jul,2019 idesktopA: The bin\Dumps folder stores the crash log for iDesktop. The crash log helps you conveniently find the reasons for desktop crashes. If it is of no use for you, you can find supermap.xml under the bin folder and set DumpEnabled in the configuration file to false.
09 Jul,2019 idesktopA: The query statement is as follows: Field_name like “%keyword%” (single quote for UDB datasources).
09 Jul,2019 idesktopA: You cannot set the maximum and minimum scales for the map through the desktop software. You can choose to set the maximum and minimum scales for the map in the xml file of the map template.
09 Jul,2019 idesktopA: Check whether the anti-aliasing option of the layer properties is enabled. You need to enable the map anti-aliasing and layer anti-aliasing options at the same time to make the anti-aliasing take effect. The anti-aliasing option for lines can take effect only if the layer transparency is zero; otherwise, it will not work.
09 Jul,2019 idesktopA: It is because the field names in shp format can only be less or equal to 10 bytes. If the lengths of the field names in the vector data exceeds 10 bytes, it is recommended that you import the *.gdb data file directly into iDesktop instead of importing the shp file exported from ArcMap.
