I am having a really difficult time trying to project the map extent (WGS84) into an envelope of a different spatial reference (Web Mercator or UTM). I have tried multiple ways of changing the spatial reference of an envelope, but none of them are working. I know they aren't working because I am drawing a graphic on the screen for the envelope, but nothing appears when changing the envelope to a different spatial reference. Using the map's spatial reference of WGS84 for the envelope works perfectly and it is drawn to the screen.
As an fyi, I am converting the envelope into a polygon, which I am using for the graphic.
The following are four different code attempts that I have made using Web Mercator. I have also tried with UTM:
SpatialReference sr3857 = SpatialReferenceBuilder.CreateSpatialReference(3857); // Builder constructors need to run on the MCT. using (SpatialReferenceBuilder srBuilder = new SpatialReferenceBuilder(3857)) { // do something with the builder sr3857 = srBuilder.ToSpatialReference(); } ArcGIS.Core.Geometry.Polygon envPoly = null; Envelope mapExtent = (Envelope)GeometryEngine.Instance.Project(MapView.Active.Extent, sr3857); private Envelope BuildEnvelope(MapPoint mapPt, Envelope inputEnvelope) { EnvelopeBuilder envelopeBuilder = new EnvelopeBuilder(SpatialReferences.WebMercator); envelopeBuilder.XMin = inputEnvelope.XMin; envelopeBuilder.YMin = inputEnvelope.YMin; envelopeBuilder.XMax = inputEnvelope.XMax; envelopeBuilder.YMax = inputEnvelope.YMax; return envelopeBuilder.ToGeometry(); } Envelope mapExtent = BuildEnvelope(MapView.Active.Extent) Envelope mapExtent = EnvelopeBuilder.CreateEnvelope(MapView.Active.Extent, SpatialReferences.WebMercator); Envelope mapExtent = EnvelopeBuilder.CreateEnvelope(MapView.Active.Extent, SpatialReferences.WebMercator);
Solved! Go to Solution.
I have come up with a solution for this problem with the assistance of the Esri ArcGIS Pro SDK team. The whole idea of attempting to project the map extent into an envelope of a different spatial reference has been scrapped and replaced with a much simpler and straightforward approach. A rectangle with four corners is created that mirrors the extent of the map, as shown in the following code snippet:
Size mapSize = MapView.Active.GetViewSize();
MapPoint pt1 = MapView.Active.ClientToMap(new Point(0, 0));
MapPoint pt2 = MapView.Active.ClientToMap(new Point(mapSize.Width * scale, 0));
MapPoint pt3 = MapView.Active.ClientToMap(new Point(mapSize.Width * scale, mapSize.Height * scale));
MapPoint pt4 = MapView.Active.ClientToMap(new Point(0, mapSize.Height * scale));
Point mapClientPt = MapView.Active.MapToClient(screenMapPt);
bool ptIntersects = (mapClientPt.X >= 0) && (mapClientPt.Y >= 0) && (mapClientPt.X <= mapSize.Width * scale) && (mapClientPt.Y <= mapSize.Height * scale);
This produces the exact results that I am looking for. Once I have the rectangle I can then check to see if the mouse intersects it or not.
Thanks again to the Esri ArcGIS Pro SDK team.
