Hi,

I am trying to get the view rectangle using:

var resultRectangle = new Cesium.Rectangle();

myScene.camera.computeViewRectangle(Cesium.Ellipsoid.WGS84, resultRectangle );

When I am in 3D all works well, but in 2D/Columbus\_View I am getting back zeros on all corners.

How can I get it to work in 2D and Columbus\_View?

Thanks.
