A powerful OCX that allows the user to load and manage TXF/TDB, MID/MI, SHP/DBF, and raster data files as distinct layers. It permits the user to set visibility thresholds, colors, line attributes, label roads, landmarks, etc. A lot of its power lies in its simplicity. Register the control, open your IDE, drop the component on a blank form and you have a simple, fully functional mapping engine with a simple built-in user interface! Literally in minutes!! And, for more complex applications, hundreds of methods and properties, dozens of built-in GUI objects, and much more... Based on a tightly integrated set of objects, it includes a rule-based styler/shader, a full compliment CAD primitives, a Sprite-type object for moving map displayes, and many more features found in products costing many times more.
