Panning map too far East or West causes invalid longitude when clicking about mapjfx HOT 3 CLOSED

Hello,

this may be indeed confusing, but is not really a fault. When zooming out, you see some areas of the world duplicated, and OpenLayers reports the ccordinates of these areas without considering the wrap around. On the one hand this is incorrect, but on the other you might need this if you want to differentiate between the two New Zealands (although I don't see a real use case).

If you need the coordinates normalized, you can use the following code (similar to what you did already):

private Coordinate normalize(Coordinate coordinate) {
    Double longitude = coordinate.getLongitude();
    while(longitude < -180.0) longitude += 360;
    while(longitude > 180.0) longitude -= 360;
    return new Coordinate(coordinate.getLatitude(), longitude);
}

I think I might add this normalize Method to the Coordinate class, but will not make an extra release, but have it contained in the next one. And I will keep it in the Java code, so the logs from Javascript will show the out-of-range values.

Thanks for your quick response, and for your information; that makes sense. My use cases always assume a longitude from -180 and 180, so I would use a normalized Coordinate. If you add the normalize method to your next release that would be great, otherwise I'll just create my own normalize method, and handle it on my end.

Thanks again for this excellent project!
