Hi everyone!
Somebody ask me about coordinate conversion widget and its datum. Does anyone knows which datum uses the coordinate conversion widget?
I guess that is WGS 1984, because ArcGIS Online uses web mercator, this is by default. It can be changed?
Solved! Go to Solution.
@ElbaMolina Yes by default it's WGS84. But the widget has been enhanced a couple of releases ago to parse coordinates in various projections. The widget reads the projection of the basemap and parses coordinates accordingly.

Hi @KevinGonzago ,
In ExB Developer Edition 1.10 or 1.11, the Coordinate widget displays wrong coordinates when the basemap projection is not Web Mercator projection and the output coordinate system is GCS_WGS_1984 (wkid: 4326).
For example, if the basemap is in NAD83 / Canada Atlas Lambert, the Coordinate widget displays big decimal degree numbers like this:
278,988.84449 -481,429.73849 Degrees
Is this a bug?
FYI, here is the basemap I used:
