Awaits user input from the system pointer and returns a coordinate.
user_coord = ClickCoord()
A coordinate.
When used in a map window, ClickCoord() returns longitude and latitude values.
When used in a layout window, ClickCoord() returns layout X and Y axis values in the current page units.
This function should be called only from a macro that is activated from the menus, or from a tool in a toolbox or toolbar. Calling it from any other type of dialog box often causes confusion about which window is active (the dialog box, versus the map).
