[mapguide-users] How to customize "Select cursor" functions in Mapguide Studio 2009

[Kenneth Skovhede, GEOGRAF A/S]

So you want to replace the map when a user clicks a point?
In the layout, set the link target to "top" (or optionally the name of 
the frame the map is in).
Then create a tooltip+link on the relevant layer, where the link points 
to the desired url, eg.: 'http://mapguide.osgeo.org'.
Now the user can ctrl+click the link to open the new page, the target 
ensures that the page is opened in the same window.

If you must have it as a tool, you will have to edit some of the viewer 
files.
I think you would start out in the file ajaxmappane.templ.
Beware that this is a bit tricky, because the user may click on a spot 
with no data.
Also, note that the tools and commands have numbers, and there is not a 
1:1 correspondance.

If you don't want other tools avalible, you can get MapGuide to just 
generate a PNG.
In html, you can then use a tag like:
<img src="..." onclick="top.location.href='...';" />

You may get away with hijacking the onclick for the map, rather than go 
trough with building a custom tool.
