Help Please.
I have an Arc Engine application that contains a PAGELAYOUT CONTROL In the code progressing I have acquired the centroid's of some selected polygons in realworld coordinates (ie x = 2484242.45 and Y = 276913.75) I have verified the coordinates are correct in arc map for the selected polygons. I am trying to use the centroid x, y location to be the anchor point for some balloon callouts. thus converting the realworld coordinates to page units (ie x = 1.1 in & y = 4.3in) Here I run into problems. Here is function I found on esri site but Obviously I am missing something and I know it is probably something simple. Can anyone help I am definately not getting page units to anchor the text balloon callouts like I expected. I am thinking I might have to populates some constants prior to running the conversion. Here is the function as I have used it
Function GetScreenCoordinatesFromMapCoorindates(ByVal mapPoint As ESRI.ArcGIS.Geometry.IPoint, ByVal activeView As ESRI.ArcGIS.Carto.IActiveView, ByVal mapenvelope As IEnvelope) As ESRI.ArcGIS.Geometry.IPoint
If mapPoint Is Nothing OrElse mapPoint.IsEmpty OrElse activeView Is Nothing Then
Return Nothing
End If
Dim screenDisplay As ESRI.ArcGIS.Display.IScreenDisplay = activeView.ScreenDisplay
Dim displayTransformation As ESRI.ArcGIS.Display.IDisplayTransformation = screenDisplay.DisplayTransformation
Dim x As System.Int32
Dim y As System.Int32
displayTransformation.FromMapPoint(mapPoint, x, y)
Dim returnPoint As ESRI.ArcGIS.Geometry.IPoint = New ESRI.ArcGIS.Geometry.PointClass
returnPoint.PutCoords(x, y)
Return returnPoint
End Function
