Get user current view polygon coordinates

orahlagi

Hi,

i know there is a way to get the user's current mouse coordinates, but i wonder if there is a way to get the user's current view polygon, which means the coordinates of each corner on the map.

The reason behind this, is that i want to show the user points that are only on his current view range, so i need to know which points should i fetch and which not.

Thanks.

@orahlagi these are 'real' coordinates but in I guess Webmercator-projection (wkid 3857), you want them in geographic coordinates (WGS84 wkid 4326)?

In that case there's a geometry-method to reproject webMercatorToGeographic , that might help you?

Thanks.

I need the geometry for the server, so i am able to get a polygon from the extent, and i'm getting "rings" array which are the xmin,ymax etc of the extent, question is, can i convert it to real coordinates somehow?

Update: using the watchUtils i can get the 'extent' property which gives me xmin,xmax,ymin,ymax.

I'm not sure how this data can help me to get the real coordinates, maybe someone can shed some light.
