Map popups don't respect MapView.ViewPadding

Question

'padding' on a MapView does a great job of making Esri widgets avoid the obstructed area of the UI, and centering the zooming.  However,  popups do not respect the padding and still appear under the obscured area of the UI.

Is this a bug, or expected behaviour?  Wondering if there is a workaround that doesn't involve manipulating the DOM to position sidebars, etc. underneath the Esri popups....

Hi there,

How are you setting the padding?

Please set the view.padding wholly: view.padding = { bottom: 400 }, not view.padding.bottom = 400. Doing so works as expected.  This codepen shows how to setting the padding wholly: https://codepen.io/U_B_U/pen/RwqGdmJ?editors=1000

We have an issue improve this down the road. Hope this helps,
