MapViewTapped invalid location DPI problem

[AlexKost]

Hi, I'am using ArcGIS  SDK for .NET 10.2.7.0 and creating "modern" store app (Store API) for Windows 8.1.  I have problem with DPI changes. On some monitors (Full HD, 24 inch, 100% scaling in Windows 10) returns MapViewTapped event correct location, but on some monitors (Full HD, 15 inch, 150% scaling) returns wrong location (several cm from correct position on Map).

Hi,

Unfortunately this is a bug in Windows 10 when running Windows Store 8.1 apps in different DPI settings. We have submitted support case to Microsoft for it. I'll have a look if we have update for this.

Thank you, is there some workaround? With pixel to coordinates ratio and real click point?

[AlexKost]

I found some workaround:

public async void OnMapTouch(object sender, MapViewInputEventArgs e)
{

   MapView view = sender as MapView;
   MapPoint mapPoint = e.Location; //clicked coordinate, not works on some DPI/DPI changes
   double unitPerPx = view.UnitsPerPixel; //not works on some DPI/DPI changes
   double unitPerPx_real = view.Extent.Width / view.ActualWidth; //it seems to works

   double x_offset = e.Position.X * unitPerPx_real;
   double y_offset = e.Position.Y * unitPerPx_real;

   Viewpoint viewpoint = view.GetCurrentViewpoint(ViewpointType.BoundingGeometry);

   double x = viewpoint.TargetGeometry.Extent.XMin + x_offset; //x coordinate, seems to works
   double y = viewpoint.TargetGeometry.Extent.YMax - y_offset; //y coordinate, seems to works

....

Update:

But other functions, as mapView.Editor.RequestShapeAsync not works

Just an idea what to test. You could override editor progress and fix the geometry in the event.

[AlexKost]

I tried this:

var progress = new Progress<GeometryEditStatus>((status) =>
{

   / /never called

}

Esri.ArcGISRuntime.Geometry.Geometry newGeometry = await mapView.Editor.RequestShapeAsync(Esri.ArcGISRuntime.Controls.DrawShape.LineSegment, null, progress);

But progress delegate is never invoked during drawing

[AnttiKajanus1]

Ah, line segments doesn't have events since it's only one action. Ie. Polygons would raise the event. I take that the only way to fix LineSegment is to iterate through the Points collection and fix all the points. Not very convenient but might do the trick.

Thank you, I solved it by own drawing to Canvas and pixel -> coordinates workaround from former post.
