Hi,
There are times that I would like to meet someone at an interesting place
place about half way between our locations. I was thinking that if I could
draw circles around these locations, then the intersection of those circles
would be a good place to search for interesting things to visit.
Does anyone have a way to do this in S&T? I have 2010 and 2007 available.
I have found that I can copy the screen to clipboard for two S&T windows
that each display one circle, and past the images into MSPaint, select the
map area and copy that, pasting it into a new paint window, and then save
them as TIF files. I then use Microsoft's free image composite editor (ICE)
to stitch the two images together. ICE does a good job -- if the images are
offset horizontally or vertically, it automatically does the stitch at an
angle. Of course, this image is not dynamic, and it would be much better if
S&T could do the two circles simultaneously.
