Popup overflows on first click

Clinton_Lunn — Thu, 18 Jan 2024 22:27:18 GMT

Hi all,

I am experiencing an issue where on the first click after a page load, (with default settings) the popup always opens above the click location, causing it to overflow the div and end up out of view. Every click after first seems to reliably work and doesn't collide with the edge of the map. Is this a known issue or am I missing a way to avoid this without docking the popup or something? I am able to reproduce this problem in the sample code snippets. https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/latest/sample-code/intro-popup/

See below:

first click after page load

second click (and beyond) after page load

I've found the default Popup positioning tends to be unreliable, but fortunately you can override the default behavior by assigning a function to the alignment property. I've modified the aforementioned sample below with what my apps use. In particular, I added lines 52-80, and also the reference to reactiveUtils on line 35.

Thanks for this! Worked great, I packaged it up into a little function:

// Set the popup alignment based on the location of the popup export function setPopupAlignment(view: SceneView | MapView) { reactiveUtils.watch(() => view.popup?.id, function () { view.popup.alignment = function () { const { location, view } = this; if ((location) && (view)) { const viewPoint = view.toScreen(location); const y2 = view.height / 2; const x2 = view.width / 3; const x3 = x2 * 2; if (viewPoint.y >= y2) { if (viewPoint.x < x2) return "top-right"; else if (viewPoint.x > x3) return "top-left"; } else { if (viewPoint.x < x2) return "bottom-right"; else if (viewPoint.x > x3) return "bottom-left"; else return "bottom-center"; } } return "top-center"; }; }); }
