problem adding point (graphic) to map on android

MikeSteven — Tue, 03 Dec 2013 15:45:39 GMT

Hi,

I'm trying to display a cached basemap and have a user click on it to create a new graphic point. All I really want at this stage are the coordinates of the point which will then be passed into another system. So far I've taken the sample for the compact api that displays a map and added a bit extra code to listen for a click and draw a point on the map at that location and show an alert with the coordinates of the point. It seems to work on a PC but when I use an android phone and add a point, the point displays in the top left hand corner of the original map starting location (even if I pan away from there and add a point). On android the alert box that displays the coordinates of the user click point then shows the x and y values as NaN.

Here's my code, any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

Hello -

Did you ever get this resolved? I'm seeing similar results where I get a valid x/y on a PC, but a touch event on an iPhone gives me NaN for the x/y of the "tap".
