You can also add vertical and horizontal guidelines and align one or more objects to a guideline to ensure they all line up. As mentioned earlier, as with the legend designer, the new layout designer will allow you to snap items to a grid automatically when they are added, to ensure a neat looking layout.The new layout designer will be in both versions. Things like auto-wrapping text boxes and an easy access toolbar in the 32-bit version and a dedicated ribbon in the 64-bit version, for improved usability. We’ve deployed the same grid and guidelines capability from the legend designer along with several other improvements to make generating layouts more efficient than ever before. In 12.5, we have an all new Layout designer to make it easier than ever before to create great looking layouts. The main thing left to do was improving the layout window. So that’s legend and labelling capabilities covered. Feedback from some users is that it has saved them several hours a week. That’s why in v12.0 last year, we rebuilt the labelling capabilities to allow you to create great looking labels automatically with much less time spent manually manipulating your labels. Many of our users create lots of output and the key ingredient to producing great looking output is having good labels. Another area we have always had a lot of feedback on is around labelling. With capabilities like snapping to a grid, and aligning one or more items in the layout to a guideline, means you don’t have to spend as much time trying to get your legends to align and look professional. We added a new legend designer in v12 to allow you to create good looking legends easier than before. We started addressing output capabilities a few years ago. You have told us for a while now that producing high quality output is a high priority item.We'll share more details on this in separate communications. The first version is expected later this year. We will build an add-on solution for grid based visualisation and analysis.
MAPINFO 10 RUS PROFESSIONAL
MapInfo Professional will support the new grid format and provide basic viewing and querying capabilities. We are creating a new grid format and a new 64-bit grid engine for raster grid applications. We are not going to spend a lot of time on this in this presentation but this is another major investment that Pitney Bowes is making in our GIS technology.

There will be 2 releases this year – 32-bit and 64-bit Colouring – yellow means the things that are in both releases The blue are only in 64-bit release The last major work area listed on this slide is the New Grid Engine we are working on. The new UI is much more intuitive and provides the ability to make many common operations easier to accomplish.
MAPINFO 10 RUS 64 BIT
The 64 bit version will come with an entirely new ribbon-based user interface. In addition, the 64 bit version provides additional performance boosts due to its ability to better utilise the available memory in your computer. Another major work area has been to make MapInfo Professional support multiple processor cores for object processing. It is easier to use and provides capabilities to produce nicer map layouts for printing than ever before. To help our customers produce better looking output and to do it with less work, we have added an all-new Legend designer to MapInfo Professional. When we survey our customers the two general areas that consistently come up as the most important to improve are how maps are printed and shared (cartographic output capabilities) and overall performance.

(We have some additional improvements, but these are the " big rocks" ).

We think this is the biggest release we’ve ever done.Let’s take a look at what’s in each release. You told us what you want and we listened We have increased the size of the R&D team significantly so we could address some key requirements of our users, one most popular requested item was for a 64-bit version that will take advantage of the hardware you’re using. We heard from many of our customers through conversations, user workshops, surveys and our Ideas web site. This year will see an unprecedented leap forward for MapInfo Professional with a renewed emphasis on making it the best GIS product for our customers. For the first time ever, we will have 2 releases – a 32-bit version at the end of this month and a true 64-bit version later in the year.
