Enable current location and compass about maps-app-dotnet HOT 6 CLOSED

@mikewilburn V2 of the installers is in Box. please verify on all platforms the following:

• map loads and zooms to your location
• pan/zoom away from the current location, then tap the current location button, you should be panned/zoomed back to your current location
• rotate the map, the compass button should rotate with the map
• tap the compass button to rotate the map back to zero degrees

Please test functionality only, the UI is not where it needs to be, and those icons are placeholders only.

Experience on Android:

• When app opens, map loads, but view remains at a global extent
• Current location button works as expected
• Rotating the map and compass button work as expected

Interacting with the app for about 30 seconds (moderate navigation) causes the app to crash.

Experience on WPF:

• App zooms to current location when it opens and map loads
• Cannot figure out how to rotate the map on WPF (Mac touch pad doesn't seem to influence anything)
• Zooming in/out is very sensitive

Update to clarify that in the latest version of the Android app, the map view correctly opens to a an extent zoomed in and centered on the current device location.

UWP app functions exactly the same as WPF app.

One oddity is that both appear to be getting a strange device location (not at the Esri Portland R&D office), but rather at in the Irvington neighborhood on NE Knott between NE 9th and 10th streets. Mara clarified that this has nothing to do with the app, but rather is due to the way the device (my Windows vm) is obtaining its location and passing that to the app.

Mara also clarified that when either the WPF or UWP app is run on a non-touch-sensitive computer, the app doesn't have the capability to rotate the map display. On a device such as a Surface Book, however, this would work.

Tested on an iPhone 5S and the map rotation, current location, and compass functionality work as expected. Closing this issue.
