Use the Region Object dialog box to display or specify the region's location. You can also display the area and perimeter for the region, as well as the number of line segments and number of polygons making up the region.

Bounds X1, Y1 and X2, Y2

The lower left (X1, Y1) and upper right (X2, Y2) corners of the region's minimum bounding rectangle (the smallest rectangle that can fully enclose the region).

Center X, Y

The coordinate of the midpoint of the middle segment. When there is an even number of segments, the middle segment is defined to be segment N/2 + 1, with N equal to the number of segments. So if you had eight segments, MapInfo Pro would report the center of the fifth segment, or 8/2 + 1.

Total Area

Total area of the region in square area units (for example, square miles, square yards etc.) To specify an area unit setting on the MAP tab, in the Options group, click Map Options to open the Map Options dialog box.

Total Perimeter

Total perimeter of the region in distance units (for example, miles, meters etc.) To specify a distance unit, on the MAP tab, in the Options group, click Map Options to open the Map Options dialog box.

Line Segments

The number of segments is the total number in all sections of the region. Does not display when the layer that the object resides in is not editable.

Polygons

The number of polygons that make up the region.

Style

Click the Style button to access the Region Style dialog box where you can specify attribute settings for the selected region.
