ClickDragAndShow()

Summary

Allows the user to pan a map by dragging it to a new position.

Syntax

ClickDragAndShow()

Notes

  • ClickDragAndShow() is used to support the Pan tool (grabber hand) in the main toolbox.

  • ClickDragAndShow() works only on the current map.

  • This function should be called only from a macro that is activated from the menus, or from a tool in a toolbox or toolbar. Calling it from any other type of dialog box often causes confusion about which window is active (the dialog box, versus the map).

Error Codes

Error Type Meaning
Escape The user pressed Esc while dragging the map
Error The current window is not a map window
