Hi,
I just spent a good amount of time trying to understand why I couldn't set the current extent of the map control to the extent of a layer I wanted to show. It is a boundary of a farm field, so fairly small extent and the CurrentExtent just would not change. It had me very confused on what could be wrong and I found some dicussions about zooming and the current scale and noticed the default value (I assume it is because I just created a WinformsMap object) seems to be 500.
For some reason with the Minimum Scale set at 500, it would not set the extent I wanted, so I changed it to 0 and then I could. Just wanted to bring it up as a suggestion to set that minimum to 0 so any extent can be set by default.
Thanks
Brian
