<DIV>Hi</DIV>

<DIV>Use getLonLatFromViewPortPx():</DIV>

<DIV> var xys = map.getLonLatFromViewPortPx(e.xy);<BR> easting = xys.lon;<BR> northing = xys.lat;<BR></DIV>

In my mind this should give the corresponding lat and<BR>lon from the current view of the map. In other words if my mouse is over NY<BR>City, then I should get that lat and lon to NY City. It would seem that<BR>200,200 ( x,y ) converts to the map off set of 200,200 instead of the<BR>location of my screen. Its like the map goes oo the 0,0 point of the map and<BR>adds 200 to X and 200 to Y and gave me the lat lon of that position. <BR><BR>for example if I'm looking at the map and tell it to draw an object at<BR>200,200 then I move the map and tell it to draw another, both objects are at<BR>the same position? In my mind, moving the map should have place the objects<BR>at different location. since 200,200 was not over the same location both<BR>time.<BR><BR>Its like I need a screen location to latlon conversion. That or the function<BR>is busted?<BR><BR>--<BR>View this message in context: <A href="http://osgeo">http://osgeo</A>-org.1803224.n2.nabble.com/latLon-from-location-on-the-screen-tp6238783p6238783.html<BR>Sent from the OpenLayers Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.<BR>_______________________________________________<BR>Users mailing list<BR>Users@lists.osgeo.org<BR><A href="http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/openlayers">http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/openlayers</A>-users<BR></DIV><br><br>
