FillSymbol3DLayer

AMD: require(["esri/symbols/FillSymbol3DLayer"], (FillSymbol3DLayer) => { /* code goes here */ });
ESM: import FillSymbol3DLayer from "@arcgis/core/symbols/FillSymbol3DLayer.js";
Class: esri/symbols/FillSymbol3DLayer
Inheritance: FillSymbol3DLayerSymbol3DLayerAccessor
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.0

FillSymbol3DLayer is used to render the surfaces of flat 2D Polygon geometries and 3D volumetric meshes in a SceneView. MapView does not support 3D symbols.

The color of the fill is set in the material property. Because of the nature of polygon and mesh geometries, size is not an option in this symbol layer. Colors can be data-driven by adding a color visual variable to any Renderer that uses this symbol layer.

A FillSymbol3DLayer must be added to the symbolLayers property of a PolygonSymbol3D or MeshSymbol3D. Multiple symbol layers may be used in a single symbol. The outline property does not have an effect when used with a MeshSymbol3D. The image below depicts a polygon FeatureLayer whose features are symbolized with a PolygonSymbol3D containing a FillSymbol3DLayer.

Property Details

castShadows

Property
castShadows Boolean
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.11 FillSymbol3DLayer since 4.0, castShadows added at 4.11.

Indicates whether the symbol layer geometry casts shadows in the scene. Setting this property to false will disable shadows for the symbol layer even if direct shadows are enabled in SceneView.environment.

This property applies only to MeshSymbol3D symbols.

Default Value:true
Example
// disables shadow casting
symbolLayer.castShadows = false;

declaredClass

Inherited
Property
declaredClass Stringreadonly
Inherited from Accessor
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.7 Accessor since 4.0, declaredClass added at 4.7.

The name of the class. The declared class name is formatted as esri.folder.className.

edges

Property
edges Edges3Dautocast
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.7 FillSymbol3DLayer since 4.0, edges added at 4.7.

Sets the contour edges on 3D Objects. This is only applicable for MeshSymbol3D.

symbol3D-edges-solid

Example
const symbol = {
  type: "mesh-3d", // autocasts as new MeshSymbol3D()
  symbolLayers: [{
    type: "fill", // autocasts as new FillSymbol3DLayer()
    material: {
      color: [244, 247, 134]
    },
    edges: {
      type: "solid", // autocasts as new SolidEdges3D()
      color: [50, 50, 50, 0.5]
    }
  }]
};

material

Property
material Objectautocast

The material defines the final color of the graphic, by blending the color property set in the material with the feature's geometry color/texture information. colorMixMode defines how these colors are mixed together.

Properties
optional
Autocasts from Object|Number[]|String

The color of the fill. This can be autocast with an array of rgb(a) values, named string, hex string or an hsl(a) string, an object with r, g, b, and a properties, or a Color object.

colorMixMode String|null
optional

Specifies how the material color is applied to the geometry color/texture information. This property applies only to MeshSymbol3D symbols.

Value Description
tint Applies the material color to the desaturated geometry/texture color.
replace Removes the geometry/texture color and applies the material color.
multiply Multiplies geometry/texture color value with the material color value. The result is a darker color. Multiplying with white keeps the geometry color the same.

Possible Values:"tint"|"replace"|"multiply"

Examples
// CSS color string
symbolLayer.material = {
  color: "dodgerblue",
  colorMixMode: "tint"
};
// HEX string
symbolLayer.material = {
  color: "#33cc33"
}
// array of RGBA values
symbolLayer.material = {
  color: [51, 204, 51, 0.3]
}
// object with rgba properties
symbolLayer.material = {
  color: {
    r: 51,
    g: 51,
    b: 204,
    a: 0.7
  }
};

outline

Property
outline Objectautocast

The outline used to draw a line around the filled geometry. This property is not supported in MeshSymbol3D symbol layers.

Properties
optional
Autocasts from Object|Number[]|String

The color of the outline. This can be autocast with an array of rgb(a) values, named string, hex string or an hsl(a) string, an object with r, g, b, and a properties, or a Color object.

size Number
optional
Autocasts from Number|String

The width of the outline in points. This value may be autocast with a string expressing size in points or pixels (e.g. 12px).

optional

The stroke pattern used to render the outline. By default, the lines are shown as solid.

patternCap String
optional

The style applied to the tips of each pattern segment along the line.

Possible Values:"butt"|"round"|"square"

Example
symbolLayer.outline = {
  color: "white",
  size: "2px",
