XamMap v2010.2

Steve posted over 14 years ago

I'm trying to display the usa_st shape file in your example, I can display this map in v2010.1 so I'm sure the shape file is good. The usa_st shp and dbf files are in a folder ShapeFiles. I have tried all paths, foward slash, back slash, no begining slash. Please help....Thank you

Hello!

You can also open a shape file from anywhere on your computer using an absolute path:

<igMap:ShapeFileReader Uri="C:\Users\SomeUser\Desktop\usa_st" />

In this case the shape file doesn't need to be a part of the project.

In WPF Map v10.2 when ShapeFileReader.Uri starts with “/” the control is not looking for project resources like before. Now it is looking for files, relative to the executable file.

If your shape files are in /project/ShapeFiles/usa_st, and your executable is in /project/bin/debug/

You need to set this path:

<igMap:ShapeFileReader Uri="/../../ShapeFiles/usa_st" />
