Productivity


Discover provides a rich set of productivity tools that will enhance the experience of any MapInfo user, plus some specialized utilities for geoscientists. This enhanced set of layer, window, table, and data tools comprises a multitude of short-cuts and useful new functions which make complex and repetitive tasks easy to perform. Once you've used Discover's productivity tools, you'll wonder how you ever survived without them.  

Enhanced Layer Control

Discover's dynamic layer control system applies changes instantaneously, allowing simple control and visualization of all your open map, browser, and layout windows, and numerous shortcuts to common tasks.

  • Create alias names for tables for easy reference
  • Group tables into categories, such as infrastructure, geology, geochemical, and geophysical, to more efficiently control large workspaces
  • Instantaneously apply all changes
  • Quickly interrogate table projection and location
  • View just the current window or all windows
  • Discover 3D controls

The enhanced layer control tool and shortcuts are available while you perform other tasks.
