I am using elastic 2.1.0. with following geo mapping  
PRIMARY\_GEOMETRY\_JSON: {  
type: "geo\_shape",  
tree: "quadtree",  
tree\_levels: 0,  
precision: "100.0m",  
strategy: "recursive",  
distance\_error\_pct: 0.1,  
orientation: "LEFT",  
points\_only: false,  
coerce: false  
}

when I query for test shape: {  
"type": "LineString",  
"coordinates": [  
[  
175.75806180015206,  
-39.452619545753954  
],  
[  
173.03345242515206,  
-42.04877180047536  
]  
]  
}

using polygon query:  
{

"from" : 0,  
"size" : 20,  
"query" : {  
"bool" : {  
"must" : {  
"match\_all" : { }  
},  
"filter" : {  
"bool" : {  
"must" : [ {  
"geo\_shape" : {  
"PRIMARY\_GEOMETRY\_JSON" : {  
"shape" : {"type": "Polygon",  
"coordinates" : [ [  
[165.881826171875, -35.984370105748795],  
[165.881826171875, -46.01768541307848] ,  
[-158.466552734375, -46.01768541307848],  
[-158.466552734375, -35.984370105748795],  
[165.881826171875, -35.984370105748795]  
]]  
},  
"relation" : "intersects"  
},  
"\_name" : null  
}  
} ]  
}  
}  
}  
}  
}  
I get correct response but If try to run Envelope query  
{  
"fields":"ASSET\_ID",  
"from" : 0,  
"size" : 20,  
"query" : {  
"bool" : {  
"must" : {  
"match\_all" : { }  
},  
"filter" : {  
"bool" : {  
"must" : [ {  
"geo\_shape" : {  
"PRIMARY\_GEOMETRY\_JSON" : {  
"shape" :{  
"type" : "envelope",  
"coordinates" : [[ 165.871826171875, -35.984370105748795], [-158.466552734375, -46.01768541307848] ]  
},  
"relation" : "intersects"  
},  
"\_name" : null  
}  
} ]  
}  
}  
}  
},  
"sort" : [ {  
"ASSET\_ID" : {  
"order" : "asc",  
"missing" : "\_last"  
}  
} ]  
}

I get no results.
