Property Overview

Property Details

declaredClass Stringreadonly inherited

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

layer Layer

References the layer this LayerView represents.

spatialReferenceSupported Booleanreadonly inherited

Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.23

Indicates if the spatialReference of the MapView is supported by the layer view. When false layer view will be suspended.

See also

• suspended

suspended Booleanreadonly inherited

Value is true if the layer is suspended (i.e., layer will not redraw or update itself when the extent changes).

See also

• spatialReferenceSupported

tiles Tile[]

The array of Tile objects computed to cover the MapView's visible area. This array is updated when the view is animating or the user is interacting with it. Then if tiles have been added or removed, tilesChanged() is called.

See also

• tilesChanged()

updating Booleanreadonly inherited

Value is true when the layer is updating; for example, if it is in the process of fetching data.

Default Value:false

view MapView

References the MapView this LayerView belongs to.

visible Boolean inherited

When true, the layer is visible in the view. Value of this property is inherited from the layer.visible unless the developer overrides it. The layerView.visible will take precedence over layer.visible if both properties are set.

Default Value:true

Method Overview

Method Details

addHandles(handleOrHandles, groupKey)inherited

Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.25

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();

Parameters

handleOrHandles WatchHandle|WatchHandle[] Handles marked for removal once the object is destroyed.

groupKey * optional Key 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.

attach()

Method called when after the LayerView is created and right before it's asked to draw the layer's content. Typically this method is implemented to start watching property changes on the layer for example.

See also

• detach()

Example

attach() {
  this._propertyHandle = this.layer.watch("opacity", function() {
    this.requestRender();
  });
}

detach()

Method called after the layer is removed and the LayerView is about to be removed. Typically, this method is implemented to free resources like watchers.

See also

• attach()

Example

// remove the watchers on the layer that are added in attach()
detach() {
  this._propertyHandle.remove();
  this._propertyHandle = null;
}

hasHandles(groupKey){Boolean}inherited

Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.25

Returns true if a named group of handles exist.

Parameter

groupKey * optional A group key.

Returns

Type	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");
}

hitTest(mapPoint, screenPoint){Promise<Graphic[]>}

Method to implement that is responsible for providing objects hit at the specified screen coordinates. This method is called internally by the MapView each time its hitTest() method is called.

Parameters

mapPoint Point The point in map units.

screenPoint ScreenPoint The point in screen coordinates.

Returns

Type	Description
Promise<Graphic[]>	A Promise that resolves to an array of graphics.

isFulfilled(){Boolean}inherited

isFulfilled() may be used to verify if creating an instance of the class is fulfilled (either resolved or rejected). If it is fulfilled, true will be returned.

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean	Indicates whether creating an instance of the class has been fulfilled (either resolved or rejected).

isRejected(){Boolean}inherited

isRejected() may be used to verify if creating an instance of the class is rejected. If it is rejected, true will be returned.

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean	Indicates whether creating an instance of the class has been rejected.

isResolved(){Boolean}inherited

isResolved() may be used to verify if creating an instance of the class is resolved. If it is resolved, true will be returned.

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean	Indicates whether creating an instance of the class has been resolved.

removeHandles(groupKey)inherited

Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.25

Removes a group of handles owned by the object.

Parameter

groupKey * optional A group key or an array or collection of group keys to remove.

Example

obj.removeHandles(); // removes handles from default group

obj.removeHandles("handle-group");
obj.removeHandles("other-handle-group");

render(renderParameters)

The method to implement that is responsible of drawing the content of the layer. This method is called every time the MapView's state changes, or if requestRender() has been called.

Parameters

Specification

renderParameters Object Specification context CanvasRenderingContext2D The canvas 2D context in which to draw content. stationary Boolean The stationary state of the MapView. state ViewState The object that describes view state.

Example

// Example of a render implementation that draws tile boundaries
render(renderParameters) {
  let tileSize = this.layer.tileInfo.size[0];
  let state = renderParameters.state;
  let pixelRatio = state.pixelRatio;
  let width = state.size[0];
  let height = state.size[1];
  let context = renderParameters.context;
  let coords = [0, 0];

  context.fillStyle = "rgba(0,0,0,0.25)";
  context.fillRect(0, 0, width * pixelRatio, height * pixelRatio);

  // apply rotation for everything that will be applied to the canvas
  if (state.rotation !== 0) {
    context.translate(width * pixelRatio * 0.5, height * pixelRatio * 0.5);
    context.rotate((state.rotation * Math.PI) / 180);
    context.translate(- width * pixelRatio * 0.5, -height * pixelRatio * 0.5);
  }

  // Set the style for all the text.
  context.font = "24px monospace";
  context.fillStyle = "black";
  context.shadowBlur = 1;

  for (const tile of this.tiles) {
    let screenScale = tile.resolution / state.resolution * pixelRatio;

    state.toScreenNoRotation(coords, tile.coords);

    // Draw the tile boundaries
    context.strokeRect(coords[0], coords[1], tileSize * screenScale, tileSize * screenScale);

    // Draw the tile information
    context.shadowColor = "white";
    context.fillText(
      tile.level + "/" + tile.row + "/" + tile.col + "/" + tile.world,
      coords[0] + 12,
      coords[1] + 24,
      tileSize * screenScale
    );
    context.shadowColor = "transparent";
  }
}

requestRender()

The LayerView can call this method to ask the MapView to schedule a new rendering frame.

Example

// Call requestRender whenever the layer opacity has changed.
attach() {
  this._propertyHandle = this.layer.watch("opacity", function() {
    this.requestRender();
  });
}

tilesChanged(added, removed)

Method to implement, which notifies of tiles being added or removed for the current view state. This function can be implemented to start and stop fetching new data, or allocate and dispose resources.

Parameters

added Tile[] The tile objects added for the current view viewport.

removed Tile[] The tile objects removed from the view viewport.

when(callback, errback){Promise}inherited

when() may be leveraged once an instance of the class is created. This method takes two input parameters: a callback function and an errback function. The callback executes when the instance of the class loads. The errback executes if the instance of the class fails to load.

Parameters

callback Function optional The function to call when the promise resolves.

errback Function optional The function to execute when the promise fails.

Returns

Type	Description
Promise	Returns a new promise for the result of callback that may be used to chain additional functions.

Example

// Although this example uses MapView, any class instance that is a promise may use when() in the same way
let view = new MapView();
view.when(function(){
  // This function will execute once the promise is resolved
}, function(error){
  // This function will execute if the promise is rejected due to an error
});
