Re: display shape files

Hi Yuxia,

OpenMap can only display Shape files that contain non-projected
coordinates - that is, the coordinates represent decimal degree
coordinates. This should explain why some files aren't being displayed.

I'm not sure what you mean by outlook - OpenMap handles points, arcs and
polygons in Shapefiles. You might have to adjust colors to get some of
them to show up?
