Displaying text that is inside of a polygon.

[Anonymous]

Okay... here is what will most likely turn out to be an easy question for you.

I have two layers that I linked to using the DATA option of the Dispaly Manager, Roads (lines) and Citylimits (a polygon). I am currently in the Style editor and I am wanting to display the name of the Roads layer that lie inside of the Citylimits Polygon. I'm thinking that I should use an expression but I am not very good at writing them.

Thank you in advance!

You can query by location and in the expression dialog use the locate on
map.

Of COURSE it was that easy. I was trying the locate on map but I kept thinking that I had to have some kind of operator with it.

Thanks, you saved me again in as many weeks.
