Feature Request:
In MapForce, in a mapping file(.mfd), when you reference a XSD or XML file, the location is should be stored as a relative path.

Currently an absolute path is used, so went the mapping file is under source control system and it is accessed on different machines (with different working folders), the files cannot be found.

Hello,

Just to let you know that we already have this logged internally as a feature request for future consideration. In the meantime you might be interested to know that relative paths are used (i.e. simply the file name) if all the files involved are located in the same directory.

Just some related info: Relative paths are used if the referenced file is in the same directory as the MFD file or in a subdirectory.
