Selecting Features within Other Map Features

Autodesk MapGuide Viewer can select all map features that are within selected polygon map features. The polygons should be on their own layer in order for this command to work effectively.

1. Select the polygon map feature(s) containing the map features you want to select.
2. Right-click in the map, and then choose SELECT > WITHIN from the popup menu to display the Select Within dialog box.
   
   
   
   
3. Choose the map layer containing the map features you want to select should they fall within the polygon(s) you selected in Step 1, and then click OK.

   For example, if you selected a buffer feature in step 1 that represents a specific distance from a customer's location, and you want to find all Acme Widget resellers within that specified distance from the customer's location, you would select the layer that contains the reseller locations.

   All map features from the specified layer that fall within the previously selected polygon(s) are now selected.
