Problem setting maximum extents

[Delfos, Jacob]

Morgan,

In this line:

>> $max_extent_obj->setExtent (7510802, 548620, 7827464, 783920);

Is there any chance you mixed up your X and Y (order of arguments is
MinX, MinY, MaxX, MaxY) ?

If your coordinates are in UTM, then the Y coordinates has 7 digits, the
x has 6.

Hope this helps,

Jacob
