[mapguide-users] Coordinate Systems

[Kenneth, GEOGRAF A/S]

I agree that it is important. But the problem is that MapGuide Studio 
assumes that the server uses the Mentor library.
This means that you should report the problem to Autodesk, as this forum 
has no influence on the development of MapGuide Studio.

I usually google around for the EPSG code, and then use the http 
interface to get the WKT for the projection.
If all else fails, I use the XY-M projection.

Regards, Kenneth, GEOGRAF A/S
