In > particular I'd like to display location points and label them. The display > properties for the shapefile contain options like "line width" and "line > colour". Is IDV only able to display line and polygon shapefiles? Is there > another way I can get it to display points? We don't currently support the point shape files, only line and polygon. It's on our list of things to do, but doesn't have a timeline. The only suggestion I have is if you can output the shapefile to a comma separated value (csv) file, you could it in according to the directions at: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/idv/docs/userguide/data/LocationXml.html Don Murray Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: WCT-536753 Department: Support IDV Priority: Normal Status: Open
