The Catalog Browser tool lets you add a translucent overlay to a map window that shows the location of a particular metadata record. See the Catalog Browser Help System for help on using this feature. The overlay information saves to a temporary group layer in the Explorer window called Catalog Browser.
You can make Catalog Browser group layers selectable and visible in the Explorer window. If you double-click on the overlay in the map window, then the Rectangle Object dialog displays with location information for the overlay, such as bounds, centroid, and size. You cannot label the overlay.
To remove an overlay from the map window, either close the map window or close MapInfo Pro. You can also remove the layer from within the Catalog Browser by clicking the View Bounds on Map button for the metadata record.
