Hello:
I have an image (TIFF) that created by taking a screenshot of a map. I
have georeferenced this image in ILWIS and now want to digitize areas of
this map. I can digitize using the segment operation using one of my
GeoTIFF's, but for this TIFF that I created it doesn't seem to work. I
have created a domain (Group type) for this and have followed all the
appropriate steps. Any suggestions on what the problem could be?

Try to geo-reference your image using tie-point then perform a
transformation.
The result will be a geo-corrected image. I believe this is the right
type of image that can be used to digitizing in WLWIS.
The procedures in WLWIS is a bit more complicated than commercial
packages since it was design for learning: user have to do more but
will gain more understanding at the end.
Start with the help under the Digitizing section, then with the User-
guide here, as I remember it should have instruction and even step-by-
step tutorial on most of the Ilwis operation.

to the folks in comp.infosystems.gis:
Being a novice at Ilwis I can't really help, I've just begun using
it. Very nice app, but does things a bit backwards compared to other
apps.
One thing I wonder is, what does the error message say, if there is
one? It's always a good idea to use the F1 key while error dialogs
pop up. Sometimes there is help, sometimes there's not. Since Ilwis
has a really good help file, there ought to be at least some info
about it.
Have you downloaded all of the "lessons" (or whatever they should be
called) and tried looking through them?
