Open a seamless layer, click Layers to display the Layers window.
In the Layers window, you can add, remove, or reorder seamless layers as if they were conventional MapInfo Pro layers. You can also set Label and Display options for all the tables in the seamless layer as if they were one table. Notice the editable option for a seamless layer is grayed.
Choose your seamless layer and experiment with order, display, and labeling options.
To retrieve information from a seamless layer:
- On the MAP tab, in the Options group, click Map Tools, and click Info.
- Click the object on the map for which you want information, which displays in the Info window. This information includes the name of the base table in which the object is stored.
To browse the seamless layer:
- On the HOME tab, in the Windows group, click New Document, and click Browser from the list, to open the Browse Table window.
- Select a layer (table) from the list and click OK to open the Select Base Table dialog box.
- Type the name of the base table you want to browse. We typed XX to indicate an unknown table. A Browser window with the base table you selected displays. If a base table matching your description is not found, a list of possibilities displays.
Keep in mind, base tables are treated like any other MapInfo Pro tables. Once a base table from a seamless table is browsed, it will be opened as any other regular MapInfo Pro table.
- To select a base table from the list, highlight it and click OK.
