[mapguide-users] Measuring distances mismatch

[Andy Morsell]

I'm seeing the same problem in a Fusion layout with MGOS 2.1.  My coordinate
system is a State Plane coordinate system with units of feet and it is set
correctly in the map definition.  I also have units of feet set in the
application definition but it still reports distances (and areas) in some
other unit resulting in huge values.  I dug around the measure widget code
to see if I could find the problem but did not get very far.

I can't get measure tool works correctly.

I need measure distances in meters with coord. system EPSG:23030, but the
distances are measured incorrectly.

real distance: 2276 m
obtained distance: 5690617 m

The Map resource is set to EPSG:23030. The ApplcacionDefinition have the
<Units> tag set to meters.

What's wrong?
