-For a list of file formats that Load Categorical Map can load, the supported [[wp>​Map_projection|projections]] and [[wp>​Datum_(geodesy)|datums]]check the [[supported map formats]].+If the "Null Value" parameter is specified, any cell corresponding to the original null value of the mapif provided, is converted to the new null value. This ensures that values originally represented by null value still representing null valueseven if the null value definition changes. Any non-null value corresponding to the newly defined null value is also promoted to new null value.
  
-===== Internal Name ===== +For a list of file formats that Load Categorical Map can load, the supported [[wp>​Map_projection|projections]] and [[wp>​Datum_(geodesy)|datums]],​ check the [[supported map formats#​map_formats_supported_for_reading|supported map formats]].
  
-LoadCategoricalMap+It is possible to load maps from [[wp>​zip_(file_format)|Zip]] archives. See [[useful_tips#​loading_files_from_zip_files|this useful tip]] to know how to do it.
  
 +The clipping window parameters allow loading only a specific rectangular region of the map instead of the entire map. When all four window coordinate parameters are null (default), the entire map is loaded. To use the clipping window feature, all four coordinates (First Window Coordinate X, First Window Coordinate Y, Second Window Coordinate X, and Second Window Coordinate Y) must be defined together.
