Hi,

When using this tool, it will be nice to have the option to specify a maximum distance (similar to Create New Line Features from Selected Points tool).
It will be useful to create centroids from group of points at once.

Thanks,
Remi

    Hello,

    How would this maximum distance be used?  It is not clear to me what this distance would be from.

    Cheers,
    Bob

    Hello Bob,
    (sorry for the late replay)

    This could be used in situations where we have groups of points(like in the attached gmw file, A and B).
    If a maximum distance of 100km would be used,in this case, we ll have 2 centroids created.
    Of course, in this example I could select first group A and create one centroid and after group B and do the same. The idea is to be used over hundred of groups.

    Thanks,
    Remi

    Hello Remi,

    Thank you for the clarification.  I have added feature request #19711 to our task list so we can evaluate adding this functionality to a future version of Global Mapper.

    Cheers,
    Bob
