I want to programatically select the pan mode, (the cursor is a hand) rather than a pointer that allows me to rubber band a square.

Can someone help, I looked through the docs.?

Hi,

You have 2 options to pan programatily:

this is the first:

Code:

            double Lat;
            double Lon; 
            Int32 x = MP.Height / 2; 
            Int32 y = MP.Width / 2; 
            double Alt = MP.ActiveMap.Altitude; 
            Location Loc = MP.ActiveMap.XYToLocation(x, y); 
            pos.CalcPos(Loc, out Lat, out Lon); 
            Lat += 1; 
            MP.ActiveMap.GoToLatLong(Lat, Lon, Alt);

this is the other:

Code:

MP.ActiveMap.Pan(GeoPanCmd.geoNorth, Amount);

With the first one you can of course exacly pan the amount of distance you want. The CalcPos does a Geocode from out of the location. You find various article here to do it.

Wilfried, That's not the answer I wanted but it is the answer I needed.

What I wanted to do was be able to use the mouse pan mode in my control. I found the two settings:

MapCntrl.MousePointer = geoPointerHand
MapCntrl.ActiveMap.DragBehavior = geoDragHand

But my next question was was going to be on how to hold a perspective (position and altitude/zoom) while (or after) adding new reverse-geocoded pins.

I think your code is perfect for that thanks.
