Hi All,

Good evening!!

I have a very basic question. I have downloaded all the source code of the map window 4.3.2 and I want to do some modification according my needs. I would like to change the main form name property. I tried it from property window in VS studio so that in the title bar of the form it will show my name instead of "mapwindow". But after changing the name it is still showing the "mapwindow" name in the title bar. I would like to know is there any other way we can change the name.

Any help concerning this will be highly appreciated.

Regards,
Niladri

I do hope you made a typo and downloaded the source code for v4.8.7
v4.3 is several years (4+) old.

You don't need to create a new version of MapWindow just to change the title.
You can do this using a plug-in.

Hi Paul,

Good Morning!

Thank you for your quick response. Yes you are right I made a typo it should be v4.8.7. But I have one question while downloading the source code from this link

[svn.mapwindow.org]

It creates a folder called "Mpwindow4.1". So I am wondering whether I am downloading the corrected updated source file or not.

Please let me know the link which I posted above is the right link or not for downloading the updated source code.

Thank you for your time.

Regards,
Niladri
