@MikeMillerGIS Is this a core Popup issue or is it tied to Information Lookup specifically? If it is the later, can we get this resolved soon? @previnWong

[MikeMillerGIS]

We center the map and show pop up, map does not move itself. maybe there is a setting or something?

Can they use the side panel?

[MikeMillerGIS]

maybe something we can leverage in this thread

@karmstro77 @NikkiGolding Made a fix to center the popup to support mobile platform. By doing so, though, the point clicked is offset from center in the display. Give it a shot and let me know. Get the version in the dev branch.

@previnWong We should make this an option. Will this change will affect and provide a different UX from an app today?

[previnWong]

It shouldn't. Today, the map center and zooms to where the user clicked. The infowindow then opens and is offset to the right, therefore getting cut off on mobile devices.

Now, I just get where the user clicked, offset that location by the resolution of the infowindow. Then show the popup. The result is that the popup is centered in the viewing area and the clicked point is offset. A graphic is there so a user knows where he/she clicked.

more worried about desktop browser based, will it only move the map if the pop up is cut off?

[previnWong]

The existing code in there calls for the map to center and zoom. So the map in the desktop browser will move as of today. I'm just changing it slightly where it centers. It should do the same for desktop browser, push it away from top or right from getting cut off.

Speaking of it now, I haven't done the case where you click and select the underlying feature. I will have to handle that case as well.
