[mapguide-users] Polygons and Intersection Problem

[Kori Maleski]

Thanks Mark,

That clarifies what I am seeing.

GetGeometryType() only yields MgPolygon instead of MgMultiPolygon, so it is
the conversion to SDF where the Shapefile geometry is lost/changed.

The Repair Geometry in ArcMap was already completed and does not affect nor
remedy the issue.


To workaround the issue (in SDF format):

I have to explode the Polygon into 2 Pieces.
Then I have to do a spatial filter to retrieve the common ID.
Then requery to get both of the desired geometries.


I will test my application to see if utilizing the shape file without
converting behaves properly with my code and the WMS.


Cheers and thanks,


Kori Maleski
