UniqueValueGroup represents a group of unique value classes (i.e. categories). This is used to group a subset of categories under a heading.
At least one group must also be used if you want to represent multiple unique values with a single symbol.
// This example groups categories under three headings:
// Commercial, Residential, and Other
layer.renderer = {
type: "unique-value",
field: "zonecode",
uniqueValueGroups: [{
heading: "Commercial",
classes: [{
label: "C-2 | Community Commercial",
symbol: createSymbol([255,179,219]),
values: ["C-1", "C-2"]
}, {
label: "C-3 | Major Commercial",
symbol: createSymbol([255,0,0]),
values: "C-3"
}]
}, {
heading: "Residential",
classes: [{
label: "R-1 | Low-Density Residential",
symbol: createSymbol([255,255,224]),
values: "R-1"
}, {
label: "R-3 | Limited High-Density Residential",
symbol: createSymbol([255,214,0]),
values: "R-3"
}, {
label: "R-4 | High-Density Residential",
symbol: createSymbol([255,166,0]),
values: "R-4",
}]
}, {
heading: "Other",
classes: [{
label: "S | Special Area",
symbol: createSymbol([161,237,237]),
values: ["S-DW", "S-DR", "S-RP", "S-JW", "S-RN", "S-WS"]
}]
}]
};

Method Details
-
addHandles(handleOrHandles, groupKey)inherited
-
Adds one or more handles which are to be tied to the lifecycle of the object. The handles will be removed when the object is destroyed.
// Manually manage handles const handle = reactiveUtils.when( () => !view.updating, () => { wkidSelect.disabled = false; }, { once: true } ); this.addHandles(handle); // Destroy the object this.destroy();
ParametershandleOrHandles WatchHandle|WatchHandle[]Handles marked for removal once the object is destroyed.
groupKey *optionalKey identifying the group to which the handles should be added. All the handles in the group can later be removed with Accessor.removeHandles(). If no key is provided the handles are added to a default group.
-
fromJSON(json){*}static
-
Creates a new instance of this class and initializes it with values from a JSON object generated from an ArcGIS product. The object passed into the input
json
parameter often comes from a response to a query operation in the REST API or a toJSON() method from another ArcGIS product. See the Using fromJSON() topic in the Guide for details and examples of when and how to use this function.Parameterjson ObjectA JSON representation of the instance in the ArcGIS format. See the ArcGIS REST API documentation for examples of the structure of various input JSON objects.
ReturnsType Description * Returns a new instance of this class.
-
Returns true if a named group of handles exist.
ParametergroupKey *optionalA group key.
ReturnsType Description Boolean Returns true
if a named group of handles exist.Example// Remove a named group of handles if they exist. if (obj.hasHandles("watch-view-updates")) { obj.removeHandles("watch-view-updates"); }
-
removeHandles(groupKey)inherited
-
Removes a group of handles owned by the object.
ParametergroupKey *optionalA group key or an array or collection of group keys to remove.
Exampleobj.removeHandles(); // removes handles from default group obj.removeHandles("handle-group"); obj.removeHandles("other-handle-group");
-
toJSON(){Object}
-
Converts an instance of this class to its ArcGIS portal JSON representation. See the Using fromJSON() guide topic for more information.
ReturnsType Description Object The ArcGIS portal JSON representation of an instance of this class.
