Coordinate System Dialog

The map coordinate system dialog window allows the user to select a spatial reference system for the map.

The dialog controls are:

• Find
  
  A text value used to search the coordinate system list control with. As a user types into this control the list will advance to the first matching or partial matching value.
• Previous
  
  When this button is clicked the list will be scrolled up to the previous matching or partial matching occurence of the Find control value.
• Next
  
  When this button is clicked the list will be scrolled down to the next matching or partial matching occurence of the Find control value.
• Selected
  
  When the user clicks this button the list will be scrolled to the currently selected (checked) coordinate system.
• Select an item in the list to view the details below
  
  A list of supported coordinate systems. The checkbox indicates what coordinate system is currently selected. Only one row can be checked at any given time and the list enforces this. The X icon in each row can be used to delete an existing coordinate system. The Authority, Code, and Description columns designate the reference standards body that defines the coordinate system.
• Well Known Text
  
  The Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) text representation for the selected coordinate system.
• WGS 84 Minimum X
  
  The valid minimum X value of the coordinate system in decimal degrees for the WGS 84 coordinate system.
• WGS 84 Minimum Y
  
  The valid minimum Y value of the coordinate system in decimal degrees for the WGS 84 coordinate system.
• WGS 84 Maximum X
  
  The valid maximum X value of the coordinate system in decimal degrees for the WGS 84 coordinate system.
• WGS 84 Maximum Y
  
  The valid maximum Y value of the coordinate system in decimal degrees for the WGS 84 coordinate system.
• Projected Minimum X
  
  The valid minimum X value of the coordinate system in the units of the currently selected coordinate system.
• Projected Minimum Y
  
  The valid minimum Y value of the coordinate system in the units of the currently selected coordinate system.
• Projected Maximum X
  
  The valid maximum X value of the coordinate system in the units of the currently selected coordinate system.
• Projected Maximum Y
  
  The valid maximum Y value of the coordinate system in the units of the currently selected coordinate system.
• New
  
  When this button is clicked the New Coordinate System dialog window is displayed where the user can create a new coordinate system.
• OK
  
  When this button is clicked the dialog updates the map control that launched the dialog and sets the objects coordinate system to the selected coordinate system in the list control.
• Cancel
  
  Closes the dialog window.
