objects</title></head><body>
<div>Hi Michael</div>
<div><br></div>
<blockquote type="cite" cite><font face="Verdana">IR17;ve just updated
the GIS Manager in the cvs to add a new layer type for creating
postscript labels for vector objects. It uses information from a
labels file (created with v.label) to make this text. Because it
creates TclTk text objects, it ignores v.label highlighting,
background, and rotation options.<br>
<br>
Also, like the postscript text layer (renamed to clarify this), these
labels can display on the screen or be output to a postscript device
(eps, pdf, or printer). But they will not appear in raster ppm, jpeg,
tif, or bmp output.<br>
<br>
I've also updated GIS Manager to conform with the new options
database specifications, developed by Cedrick Shock. This will make
formatting consistent across the entire gui and make it easy to change
formatting across the entire gui.</font><br>

<div><font face="Verdana">GREAT. This is a very useful command to
insert text.</font></div>
<div><font face="Verdana"><br></font></div>
<div><font face="Verdana">There is a problem when you make a PDF (or
PS) from Print button. This is an old problem in new
gis.m.</font></div>
<div><font face="Verdana">- You create your vector - raster layers and
text layers.</font></div>
<div><font face="Verdana">- You change the value inside the box more
time (example text layers).</font></div>
<div><font face="Verdana">- At the end you save a PDF from Print
button.</font></div>
<div><font face="Verdana">- This PDF displays any change you've made
(only display the sequence of changes): this is wrong because the file
size is bigger and the visualization is slow. This PDF have to contain
only the true layers not the history of changes. Try.</font></div>
<div><font face="Verdana"><br></font></div>
<div><font face="Verdana">Bye</font></div>
