How to get lat and long on click?

I just tried $(".mapcontainer").data('mapael').mapPagePositionToXY(e.pageX, e.pageY). I am getting the x and y co-ordinates which I am saving into database. And showing it somewhere. Now, I want to save the lat and long into database and show the same. How can I get the lat and long from the clicked position?

Currently, I am using this to get the current x and y position.

$(".mapcontainer").on('click', function (e) {
            
            var coords = $(".mapcontainer").data('mapael').mapPagePositionToXY(e.pageX, e.pageY), plotId = 'plot-' + Math.round(Math.random() * 1000), updateOptions = { 'newPlots': {}, 'replaceOptions': { resetPlots: true }, deletePlotKeys: plots };

            plots.push(plotId);
            updateOptions.newPlots[plotId] = {
                x: coords.x,
                y: coords.y,
                value: "unknown"
            };

            selectedlat = coords.x;
            selectedlong = coords.y;

            ReInitialize(updateOptions);

        });

I think adding that function should give the more flexibility to this tool. This way the users will directly get an idea what they need to do to achieve something. I spent a whole day finding this out 😃

You’re right, at least a little bit of documentation would be welcome on this topic 😃
