Robert Scheitlin's Enhanced Draw Widget - Lat Long Point Labeling removed?

MegPeterson — Thu, 06 Jan 2011 17:14:26 GMT

One of the earlier versions of Robert's enhanced draw widget included the option to label a point with Decimal Degrees or DMS. The later version has that option removed and defaults to the map units (in my case State Plane).

Does anyone know why this was done (Robert are you out there?)? I'd love to include this option as many of our staff need to retrieve lat long for graphic points instead of the state plane units.

If not, does anyone know an easy way to convert from state plane to lat long in a widget? I'm not looking to have it on the fly in the banner - just for points drawing on the map.

Many thanks, Meg

Thanks Robert, though I'll still be living in the 1.3 world for a while.... Any other options that you know of to display lat long easily?

Also, just wanted to let you know what a resource you are to all of us who plod along learning this stuff. Thanks.

Meg,

So what 1.x version are you using of the widget then? I have some many now I can hardly keep track of them all.
