Display the map at an initial viewpoint representing a bounding geometry.
Use case
Setting the initial viewpoint is useful when a user wishes to first load the map at a particular area of interest.
How to use the sample
When the sample loads, note the map is opened at the initial view point that is set to it.
How it works
- Instantiate an
ArcGISMap
object. - Instantiate a
Viewpoint
object using anEnvelope
object. - Set the starting location of the map with
initialViewpoint
. - Set the map to an
ArcGISMapView
object.
Relevant API
- ArcGISMap
- ArcGISMapView
- Envelope
- Viewpoint
Tags
envelope, extent, initial viewpoint, zoom
