[mapguide-users] Tolerance for selection

[Chris Tallman]

I have found that if you use an image like a png the point selection is
much better.  I think it uses the image bounds at the selection area.
If you stick to the MG default symbols its almost impossible to select a
point.

You have to create a symbol library and add your images to said library.
When you are setting up your point layers you can select any image in
the symbol library.

Hope this helps.

I have had this problem too, especially with symbols. Im 6.5 the you
could select the entire symbol by clicking on it, in mgOS you must
exactly click on the insertion point. 

I wrote my own selection tool, which uses a selectRadius with a radius
of 3 meters so the symbol is selected...

Can you change the tolerance for selecting points? The Select tool
doesn't
always select a point. Any tips for making this tool work better?

Thanks
