Many times, when you are retrieving a WMS map, you are adding it to enhance the detail of a Map window that you are already working on. We have changed the default behavior of the Projection drop-down box. Now, this list defaults to the projection that matches the front-most Map window, if that projection is available in the list.
But What if a WMS Definition Already Exists or I am not Working in a Map Window?
- If you are retrieving a WMS map and there was a previous WMS definition (or you are modifying a WMS map), MapInfo Pro uses the coordinate system that matches the current projection (not necessarily the Map window's coordinate system).
- If there was no previous WMS definition, the current Map window's coordinate system is selected if it can be found in the Projection list.
- If the Map window's coordinate system is not in the Projection list or you are retrieving a WMS map when you are not working in a Map window, MapInfo Pro tries to default to EPSG:4326.
- Finally, if none of these projections are found, the first item in the Projection list is selected.
