Reset Map Extent

EricElder — Wed, 11 Jul 2012 18:44:21 GMT

I would like to completely reset the extent of a map. I have tried:

MyMap.Extent = new Envelope();

This does not work. It keeps the original extents even after I have deleted all the layers in the map. Any recommendations?

Basically I'm refreshing the map with all new added layers and need a new extent.

I think I solved it...

MyMap.Layers.Clear();
MyMap.Extent = new Envelope();

Then add new layers.

After all layers are removed and new layers are added you would need to reset the map's extent to extent of all layers. Try this

MyMap.Extent=MyMap.Layers.GetFullExtent();
