Can the Coordinates Widget so coordinates of different map projections?

Hi,

I have basemaps of different projections, but when I select a different basemap it won't show the coordinates.

The widget help says 'You can configure the widget with a variety of output coordinate systems and transformations.' I've added a second coordinate of the basemap I want them show but it just says 'Click the map to display coordinates' where it should show the coordinates.

Here is my set up below:

Hi @RachelS,

I would recommend reviewing the following Knowledge Article, as this may explain why you are running to this issue: https://support.esri.com/en-us/knowledge-base/problem-coordinates-not-displayed-in-the-arcgis-experie-000039376

It is likely that the coordinates are not updating dynamically based on the cursor’s position because the coordinate system you have selected does not match the coordinate system of the map. Take a look at the article above for more details.

All the best,
Clio

Thanks @ClioClark

Yes, it seems that only one coordinate system is allowed, which is a pity.
