Dropped pin coords or coords for centre of the map

[Anonymous User]

Is it possible to pass the coordinates from a 'Dropped pin' via Arcade or some other means?

Alternatively is it possible to get the coordinates for the centre of the map in ArcGIS Explorer/Collector?

I know it's possible to open Explorer, via a parameter, to centre on given coordinates (Deploy maps—ArcGIS Explorer | Documentation) but am wondering about the reverse.

Hi Mark Peacey , 

Coordinates of where a user clicked in the map cannot be accessed in Arcade. Nor is it possible to access the extent of the map and calculate the center of it. It would be nice to have.

Arcade will need a geometry to get to the coordinate. For a point you will know where the user clicked, but for a polyline and polygon you will not know it (only that it was on the geometry or wihtin the tolerance of the geometry).
