analyses Property analyses Collection<Analysis>autocast Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.34 View2D since 4.31, analyses added at 4.34.

A collection of analyses associated with the view.

Examples

// Adds an analysis to the View
view.analyses.add(elevationProfileAnalysis);

// Removes an analysis from the View
view.analyses.remove(elevationProfileAnalysis);

animation Property animation ViewAnimation |null |undefined

Represents an ongoing view animation initialized by goTo(). You may watch this property to be notified of the animation's state.

See also

goTo()

Example

reactiveUtils.watch(
  () => view.animation,
  (response) => {
    if(response?.state === "running"){
      console.log("Animation in progress");
    } else{
     console.log("No animation");
    }
  }
);

animationsEnabled Property animationsEnabled Boolean Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.34 View2D since 4.31, animationsEnabled added at 4.34.

Indicates whether animations are enabled in the view. This includes animated symbols (animated CIMSymbol, PictureMarkerSymbol from a GIF/animated PNG), animated renderers (FlowRenderer), animated layers (MediaLayer, VideoLayer), and animations triggered by view navigation (for example, goTo()). Setting this property to false disables all animations in the view.

Default Value:true

aria Property aria Object |null |undefined Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.34 View2D since 4.31, aria added at 4.34.

The ARIA attributes for the view container.

Properties

See also

background Property background ColorBackground |null |undefinedautocast

The background color of the MapView. If the view's map changes, the view's background is reset to the map's background, even if the user set it previously.

Default Value:null

Example

let view = new MapView({
  container: "viewDiv",
  map: map,
  background: { // autocasts new ColorBackground()
    color: "magenta" // autocasts as new Color()
  }
});

basemapView Inherited Property basemapView BasemapView Inherited from View

Represents the view for a single basemap after it has been added to the map.

breakpoints Property breakpoints Object

A convenience property used for defining the breakpoints on the height and width of the view. The sizes specified here determine the values of the widthBreakpoint and heightBreakpoint properties depending on the view's size.

Setting up breakpoints can aid in responsive app design. It does this by watching width and height breakpoints. This is helpful as it removes the need for multiple @media calls. Instead of listening for the view's size and/or resizes property, you can set up a watch handler for either the widthBreakpoint or heightBreakpoint properties of the view.

Please refer to the styling guide for additional information on working with this.

Properties

xsmall Number

optional

Default Value:544

Sets the xsmall breakpoint in pixels used by widthBreakpoint and heightBreakpoint. If the view's height or width is smaller than this value, then the value of widthBreakpoint or heightBreakpoint will be xsmall.

small Number

optional

Default Value:768

Sets the small breakpoint in pixels used by widthBreakpoint and heightBreakpoint. If the view's height or width is between this value and the value of the xsmall property, then the value of widthBreakpoint or heightBreakpoint will be small.

medium Number

optional

Default Value:992

Sets the medium breakpoint in pixels used by widthBreakpoint and heightBreakpoint. If the view's height or width is between this value and the value of the small property, then the value of widthBreakpoint or heightBreakpoint will be medium.

large Number

optional

Default Value:1200

Sets the large breakpoint in pixels used by widthBreakpoint and heightBreakpoint. If the view's height or width is between this value and the value of the medium property, then the value of widthBreakpoint or heightBreakpoint will be large. widthBreakpoint and heightBreakpoint. If the view's height or width is greater than the value of the large property, then the value of widthBreakpoint or heightBreakpoint will be xlarge.

See also

Example

// Instead of watching the size or resizing properties
reactiveUtils.watch(() => view.size, () => {});
reactiveUtils.watch(() => view.resizing, () => {});

// Set up a watch handle for breakpoint
reactiveUtils.watch(
  () => view.widthBreakpoint,
  (breakpoint) => {
    switch (breakpoint) {
      case "xsmall":
      // do something
        break;
      case "small":
      case "medium":
      case "large":
      case "xlarge":
      // do something else
        break;
      default:
    }
  }
);

center Property center Pointautocast Autocasts from Number []|Object

Represents the view's center point; when setting the center, you may pass a Point instance or an array of numbers representing a longitude/latitude pair ([-100.4593, 36.9014]). Setting the center immediately changes the current view. For animating the view, see goTo().

The returned Point object is always in the spatial reference of the view and may be modified internally. To persist the returned object, create a clone using Point.clone().

Notes

If the spatial reference of center set in the constructor does not match the spatialReference of the view, then projectOperator will be loaded dynamically.
At runtime, the projectOperator must be loaded when setting the center to a spatial reference that doesn't match the view spatial reference. You can check if the projectOperator is loaded prior to setting the center by calling projectOperator.isLoaded(). If it is not yet loaded, you can call projectOperator.load().

See also

goTo()

Examples

// Sets the initial center point of the view to lon/lat coordinates
// lon/lat will be projected to match the spatial reference of the view
let view = new MapView({
  center: [-112, 38]
});

// Updates the view's center point to a pre-determined Point object
let pt = new Point({
  x: 12804.24,
  y: -1894032.09,
  spatialReference: {
    wkid: view.spatialReference  // wkid 2027
  }
});
view.center = pt;

const centerPoint = new Point({
  x: -8746995,
  y: 4352308,
  spatialReference: {
    wkid: 8857
  }
});
if (!projectOperator.isLoaded()) {
  await projectOperator.load();
}
view.center = centerPoint;

constraints Property constraints Accessorautocast

Specifies constraints to scale, zoom, and rotation that may be applied to the MapView. The constraints.lods should be set in the MapView constructor, if the map does not have a basemap or when the basemap does not have tileInfo. See Zoom and LODs section to learn more how MapView's zoom and LODs work. See the object specification below.

Properties

lods LOD []|null|undefined

An array of LODs. If not specified, this value is read from the Map. It is possible to generate additional LODs via the TileInfo.create() method. This is useful in cases where the default amount of LODs provided are not sufficient. One example of when this is needed is when setting the view scale 1:1. Additionally, this property may be autocast.

geometry Extent|Polygon|null|undefined

The area in which the user is allowed to navigate laterally. Only Extent and Polygon geometry types are supported. Z-values are ignored. This property is honored by interactive MapView navigation and goTo(). This property may be autocast.

minScale Number

The minimum scale the user is allowed to zoom to within the view.

maxScale Number

The maximum scale the user is allowed to zoom to within the view. Setting this value to 0 allows the user to overzoom layer tiles.

minZoom Number

The minimum zoom level the user is allowed to zoom to within the view.

maxZoom Number

The maximum zoom level the user is allowed to zoom to within the view. Setting this value to 0 allows the user to over-zoom layer tiles.

snapToZoom Boolean

Default Value:true

When true, the view snaps to the next LOD when zooming in or out. When false, the zoom is continuous. This does not apply when zooming in/out using two finger pinch in/out.

rotationEnabled Boolean

Default Value:true

Indicates whether the user can rotate the map.

effectiveLODs LOD []|null|undefined

A read-only property that specifies the levels of detail (LODs) read from the Map.

effectiveMinZoom Number

A read-only property that specifies the minimum zoom level the user is allowed to zoom to within the view.

effectiveMaxZoom Number

A read-only property that specifies the maximum zoom level the user is allowed to zoom to within the view.

effectiveMinScale Number

A read-only property that specifies the minimum scale the user is allowed to zoom to within the view.

effectiveMaxScale Number

A read-only property that specifies the maximum scale the user is allowed to zoom to within the view.

  x: 0,
  y: 0,
  spatialReference
});

// Create LODs from level 0 to 31
const tileInfo = TileInfo.create({
  spatialReference,
  numLODs: 32
});
const lods = tileInfo.lods;

let view = new MapView({
  container: "viewDiv",
  map,
  scale: 1,
  center,
  spatialReference,
  constraints: {
    lods: lods,
    snapToZoom: false
  }
});

container Property container HTMLDivElement |null |undefinedautocast Autocasts from String

The id or node representing the DOM element containing the view. This is typically set in the view's constructor.

Examples

// Sets container to the DOM id
let view = new MapView({
  container: "viewDiv"  // ID of the HTML element that holds the view
});

// Sets container to the node
let viewNode = document.getElementById("viewDiv");
let view = new SceneView({
  container: viewNode
});

declaredClass Inherited Property declaredClass Stringreadonly Inherited from Accessor

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

displayFilterEnabled Inherited Property displayFilterEnabled Boolean Inherited from View Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.32 View since 4.0, displayFilterEnabled added at 4.32.

Indicates whether displayFilters are honored across all layers in the view. If false, display filters are ignored on all layers and all features are rendered. To ignore display filters on a per-layer basis, set the layer's displayFilterEnabled property to false.

Default Value:true

extent Property extent Extentautocast

The extent represents the visible portion of a map within the view as an instance of Extent. Setting the extent immediately changes the view without animation. To animate the view, see goTo(). When the view is rotated, the extent does not update to include the newly visible portions of the map.

The returned Extent object is an internal reference which may be modified internally. To persist the returned object, create a copy using Extent.clone().

Notes

If the spatial reference of extent set in the constructor does not match the spatialReference of the view, then projectOperator will be loaded dynamically.
At runtime, the projectOperator must be loaded when setting the extent to a spatial reference that doesn't match the view spatial reference. You can check if the projectOperator is loaded prior to setting the extent by calling projectOperator.isLoaded(). If it is not yet loaded, you can call projectOperator.load().

Default Value:null

goTo()

Example

// the projectOperator must be loaded in the app if the spatial reference
// of the view does not match the spatial reference of the extent
const extent = new Extent({
  xmin: -13056650,
  ymin: 6077558,
  xmax: -13055709,
  ymax: 6077938,
  spatialReference: new SpatialReference({wkid:3857})
});
view.extent = extent;  // Updates the view without animation

    view.ui.components = [];
  }
);

highlightOptions Property highlightOptions HighlightOptionsautocast Deprecated since version 4.32. Use the highlights property instead.

Options for configuring the highlight. Use the highlight method on the appropriate LayerView to highlight a feature.

See also

Example

const view = new MapView({
  map: map,
  highlightOptions: {
    color: [255, 255, 0, 1],
    haloOpacity: 0.9,
    fillOpacity: 0.2
  }
});

highlights Inherited Property highlights Collection<HighlightOptions>autocast Inherited from View Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.32 View since 4.0, highlights added at 4.32.

Represents a collection of HighlightOptions objects which can be used to highlight features throughout an application. Highlighting works by applying highlight options to one or more features. You can configure these options (such as color or opacity) to define how a feature will be visually emphasized.

A maximum of six HighlightOptions objects are supported in the collection, and they can be added, removed, and reordered freely. Their order in the collection determines priority, with the last object having the highest priority. If you apply more than one highlight to a feature, the one that is last within the collection will be applied. The HighlightOptions object must be part of this collection in order to be applied to features.

To highlight a feature, use the highlight() method on the relevant LayerView instance. To apply specific HighlightOptions, include the name in the highlight() method's options parameter. If no name is provided, the feature will use the default highlight options.

The table below shows the default highlight options in the View's highlights collection if the collection has not been modified:

Highlight options name	Description	Default settings
default	The default highlight options. Used when `layerView.highlight()` is called without specifying any particular highlight options.	`{ name: "default", color: "cyan", haloOpacity: 1, fillOpacity: 0.25, shadowColor: "black", shadowOpacity: 0.4, shadowDifference: 0.2}`
temporary	The temporary highlight options, pre-configured for common use cases such as hovering over a feature in the view.	`{ name: "temporary", color: "yellow", haloOpacity: 1, fillOpacity: 0.25, shadowColor: "black", shadowOpacity: 0.4, shadowDifference: 0.2 }`

Examples

// Use the default highlights collection to apply a highlight to features when you hover over them

// A handler can be used to remove any previous highlight when applying a new one
let hoverHighlight;

view.on("pointer-move", (event) => {
  // Search for the first feature in the featureLayer at the hovered location
  view.hitTest(event, { include: featureLayer }).then((response) => {
    if (response.results[0]) {
       const graphic = response.results[0].graphic;
       view.whenLayerView(graphic.layer).then((layerView) => {
         // Remove any previous highlight, if it exists
         hoverHighlight?.remove();
         // Highlight the hit features with the temporary highlight options, which are pre-configured for this use case
         hoverHighlight = layerView.highlight(graphic, { name: "temporary"});
       });
    }
  });
});

// Override the default highlights collection

const view = new MapView({
  map: map,
  container: "viewDiv",

  // Set the highlight options to be used in the view

    { name: "default", color: "orange" },
    { name: "temporary", color: "magenta" },
    { name: "table", color: "cyan", fillOpacity: 0.5, haloOpacity: 0}
  ]
});

// Add highlight options to the collection after initialization

const selectionHighlightOptions = {
  name: "selection",
  color: "#ff00ff", // bright fuchsia

popup Property popup Popup |null |undefinedautocast

A Popup object that displays general content or attributes from layers in the map.

By default, the popup property is an empty object that allows you to set the popup options. A Popup instance is automatically created and assigned to the view's popup when the user clicks on the view and popupEnabled is true, when the openPopup() method is called, or when some widgets need the popup, such as Search. If popup is null, the popup instance will not be created.

See also

Examples

// Set the view's popup to a new Popup instance.
// The popup will show anytime a popup is called such as when selecting features or displaying a Search result.
view.popup = new Popup();

// Set the popup to a PopupOptions object with popup properties set such as the dock options.
// The popup will show anytime a popup is called.
view.popup = {
 dockEnabled: true,
 dockOptions: {
   position: "top-left",
   breakpoint: false
 }
};

// Set the popup to null. This disables the popup so it will never show up.
view.popup = null;

popupEnabled Property popupEnabled Boolean

Controls whether the popup opens when users click on the view.

When true, a Popup instance is created and assigned to view.popup the first time the user clicks on the view, unless popup is null. The popup then processes the click event.

When false, the click event is ignored and popup is not created for features but will open for other scenarios that use a popup, such as displaying Search results.

Default Value:true

See also

popup
openPopup

Example

// Disable the popup from automatically appearing and
// open the popup manually using a click event.
view.popupEnabled = false;
view.on("click", (event)=> {
  view.openPopup({
    // Set properties for the manually opened popup
    ...
  });
});

ready Inherited Property ready Booleanreadonly Inherited from View

When true, this property indicates whether the view successfully satisfied all dependencies, signaling that the following conditions are met.

The view has a map. If map is a WebMap or a WebScene, then the map or scene must be loaded.
The view has a container with a size greater than 0.
The view has a spatialReference, a center, and a scale. These also can be inferred by setting an extent.

When a view becomes ready it will resolve itself and invoke the callback defined in when() where code can execute on a working view. Subsequent changes to a view's readiness would typically be handled by watching view.ready and providing logic for cases where the map or container change.

Default Value:false

when()

readyState Inherited Property readyState Stringreadonly Inherited from View Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.32 View since 4.0, readyState added at 4.32.

Provides more granular information about the view's process of becoming ready. This property helps manage view properties when the view fails to become ready, such as when the basemap fails to load.

The following are the possible expected values and their descriptions:

Value	Description
`loading`	The view is currently loading information from the map.
`ready`	The view is ready. This is similar to the `ready` property.
`missing-map`	The view is missing a map. Set the view's map property.
`missing-container`	The view is missing a container. Set the view's container property.
`empty-map`	The view's map has no layers. Add layers to the map.
`rendering-error`	The view failed to render. This is similar to the `fatalError` property.
`map-content-error`	The view failed to find information from the map and couldn't derive the spatialReference. Verify that the `map` correctly loaded with the `loadError` property, as well as its basemap, and the first layer in the map's layers collection. Alternatively, set a valid `center`, `scale`, and `spatialReference`.

Default Value:"loading"

Examples

// Watch the view's readyState immediately after its initialization.
reactiveUtils.watch(
  () => view.readyState,
  (state) => {
    switch (state) {
      case "missing-map":
        // Map is missing. Set a default map.
        view.map = new Map({ basemap: "streets" });
        break;
    }
  },
  {
    initial: true // fire the callback immediately after initialization.
  }
);

const view = new MapView({
  container: "viewDiv",

  map: new Map({
    basemap: {
    baseLayers: [
      new TileLayer({
        url: "my-failing-tiled-service"
      })
    ]
  }
});

reactiveUtils.watch(() => view.readyState, (state) => {
  switch (state) {
    case "map-content-error":
      // Defaults to a different map in case of failure
      view.map = new Map({ basemap: "streets" });
      break;
    case "rendering-error":
      view.tryFatalErrorRecovery();
      break;
    default:
      console.log("View is not ready:", state);
  }
});

resizeAlign Property resizeAlign String

Defines which anchor stays still while resizing the browser window. The default, center, ensures the view's center point remains constantly visible as the window size changes. The other options allow the respective portion of the view to remain visible when the window's size is changed.

Default Value:"center"

resizing Property resizing Booleanreadonly

Indicates if the view is being resized.

Default Value:false

resolution Property resolution Numberreadonly

Represents the size of one pixel in map units. The value of resolution can be found by dividing the extent width by the view's width.

rotation Property rotation Number

The clockwise rotation of due north in relation to the top of the view in degrees. The view may be rotated by directly setting the rotation or by using the following mouse event: Right-click + Drag. Map rotation may be disabled by setting the rotationEnabled property in constraints to false. See the code snippet below for an example of this.

Default Value:0

Examples

// Due north is rotated 90 degrees, pointing to the right side of the view
view.rotation = 90;

// Due north is rotated 180 degrees, pointing to the bottom of the view
view.rotation = 180;

// Due north is rotated 270 degrees, pointing to the left side of the view
view.rotation = 270;

// Due north is rotated 0 degrees, pointing to the top of the view (the default)
view.rotation = 0; // 360 or multiple of 360 (e.g. 720) works here as well.

// Disables map rotation
view.constraints = {
  rotationEnabled: false
};

scale Property scale Number

Represents the map scale at the center of the view. Setting the scale immediately changes the view. For animating the view, see goTo().

See also

goTo()
Zoom and LODs

Example

view.scale = 24000;  // Sets the map scale in the view's center to 1:24,000

size Property size Number[]readonly

An array containing the width and height of the view in pixels, e.g. [width, height].

spatialReference Property spatialReference SpatialReferenceautocast

The spatial reference of the view. This indicates the projected or geographic coordinate system used to locate geographic features in the map. Starting at version 4.23, you can change the spatialReference of the MapView after it is initialized by either directly changing this property, or by changing the basemap from the BasemapGallery or BasemapToggle widgets. Set spatialReferenceLocked property to true to prevent users from changing the view's spatial reference at runtime.

Prior to changing the spatial reference, check if the projectOperator is loaded by calling projectOperator.isLoaded(). If it is not yet loaded, call projectOperator.load() method. If the projectOperator is not loaded, the view's center will default to [0, 0] in the new spatial reference of the view and a console error will be thrown.

Notes

LayerViews not compatible with the view's spatial reference are not displayed. In such case, the layer view's suspended property is true and spatialReferenceSupported property is false.
When setting view's spatial reference, the center, extent or viewpoint.targetGeometry properties are projected to the new spatial reference. The scale and rotation properties are adjusted to keep the content of the map at the same size and orientation on screen.
To ensure TileLayers and VectorTileLayers are displayed in a basemap correctly, the spatialReference of the MapView must be set match their tileInfo's spatial reference.
Switching spatial reference with an imageCoordinateSystem is not supported.

Default Value:null

See also

spatialReferenceLocked

Examples

// check if the projectOperator is loaded
if (!projectOperator.isLoaded()) {
  projectOperator.load().then(() => {
   // change the spatial reference of the view to equal earth projection
    view.spatialReference = new SpatialReference({
      wkid: 54035 //equal earth projection
    });
  });
} else {
  // the projectOperator is already loaded.
  // change the spatial reference of the view to equal earth projection
  view.spatialReference = new SpatialReference({
    wkid: 54035 //equal earth projection
  });
}

const basemap = await changeBasemap();
const spatialReference = await findSpatialReference(basemap);

// check if basemap has the same spatial reference as the view if they are not equal
// then check if the projectOperator is loaded. load the projectOperator if it is not loaded.
// If loaded, then simply change view.spatialReference to match the basemap spatialReference
if (spatialReference && !view.spatialReference.equals(spatialReference)) {
  if (!projectOperator.isLoaded()) {
    await projectOperator.load();
  }
  view.spatialReference = spatialReference;
}

// change the basemap
map.basemap = basemap;

async function changeBasemap() {
  let basemap;
  if (map.basemap.title === "OpenStreetMap Vector Basemap (Blueprint - WGS84)"){
    basemap = new Basemap({
      portalItem: { // Spilhaus - one ocean basemap
        id: "5639ccf22d4c4830ab815c4f9c9319bb"
      }
    });
  } else {
    basemap = osm84;
  }
  return basemap;
}

async function findSpatialReference(basemap) {
  await basemap.load();

  if (basemap.spatialReference) {
    return basemap.spatialReference;
  }

  const layer = basemap.baseLayers.at(0);

  if (!layer) {
    return null;
  }

  await layer.load();

  return layer.spatialReference;
}

spatialReferenceLocked Property spatialReferenceLocked Boolean

Indicates if the MapView's spatialReference can be changed after it is ready. The default is false indicating the view's spatialReference can be changed at runtime. When true, basemaps with spatial references that do not match the MapView's spatial reference will be disabled in BasemapGallery and BasemapToggle widgets and the view spatialReference cannot be changed at runtime.

Default Value:false

See also

spatialReference

stationary Inherited Property stationary Booleanreadonly Inherited from View

Indication whether the view is animating, being navigated with or resizing.

suspended Property suspended Booleanreadonly

Indicates if the view is visible on the page. When true, the view is not visible and it stops rendering and updating data. Set to true when one of the following conditions are met:

if the view does not have a container,
if the view's height or width equal to 0,
if the view container's css style display is set to none (display:none).

When the view container's css style visibility is set to hidden, this property is set to false, and the view is hidden but it stills renders and updates data.

Default Value:true

theme Inherited Property theme Theme |null |undefinedautocast Inherited from View

This property specifies the base colors used by some widgets and components to render graphics and labels. This only affects those components that would otherwise use the default orange pattern.

Default Value:null

See also

Example

// Update the theme to use purple graphics
// and slightly transparent green text
view.theme = new Theme({
  accentColor: "purple",
  textColor: [125, 255, 13, 0.9]
});

tileInfo Property tileInfo TileInfo |null |undefinedreadonly

The tiling scheme information of the view.

timeExtent Inherited Property timeExtent TimeExtent |null |undefinedautocast Inherited from View

The view's time extent. Time-aware layers display their temporal data that falls within the view's time extent. Setting the view's time extent is similar to setting the spatial extent because once the time extent is set, the view updates automatically to conform to the change.

Default Value:null

Example

// Create a csv layer from an online spreadsheet.
let csvLayer = new CSVLayer({
  url: "http://test.com/daily-magazines-sold-in-new-york.csv",
  timeInfo: {
    startField: "SaleDate" // The csv field contains date information.
  }
});

// Create a mapview showing sales for the last week of March 2019 only.
const view = new MapView({
  map: map,
  container: "viewDiv",
  timeExtent: {
    start: new Date("2019, 2, 24"),
    end:   new Date("2019, 2, 31")
  }
});

timeZone Property timeZone String

Defines the time zone of the view. The time zone property determines how dates and times are represented to the user, but the underlying data is unchanged. Changing the time zone will have the following effect:

Arcade: Arcade expressions referencing date values in labels, renderers, and forms will represent dates by default in the time zone of the view. When the view time zone is changed, the output of Arcade expressions working with dates may change to match the time zone of the view. The user can use the ChangeTimeZone Arcade function (e.g. ChangeTimeZone($feature.dateField, "system")) to display dates in another time zone regardless of web map time zone. Alternatively they can construct Date values in the context of a specific time zone (e.g. Date(2013, 1, 1, 10, 00, 00, 00, "UTC")).
Components/widgets: Date values, including values from date and timestamp-offset fields, will be displayed in the view's time zone by default in the following components/widgets: Bookmarks, Editor, Feature, FeatureForm, Features, FeatureTable, Legend, Popup and TimeSlider.

The time zone can be set to one of the following values:

Possible Values

Value	Description
system	Dates and times will be displayed in the time zone of the device or browser.
unknown	Dates and times will be displayed based on the time zone that has been defined for the layer. No adjustments are made to the display of date info. TimeSlider is disabled.
Specified IANA time zone	Dates and times will be displayed in the specified IANA time zone. See wikipedia - List of tz database time zones.

If the timeZone is set to unknown and a layer’s date/time field includes time information, set the timeStyle property to either long or full on the corresponding date/time field.

Default Value:"system"

See also

wikipedia - List of tz database time zones

Example

// Date and time will be displayed in Pacific/Auckland (NZ) time zone
const view = new MapView({
  map: map,
  container: "viewDiv",
  timeZone: "Pacific/Auckland"
});

type Property type Stringreadonly

The dimension of the view.

For View2D the type is always "2d".

ui Property ui DefaultUIautocast

Exposes the default widgets available in the view and allows you to toggle them on and off. See DefaultUI for more details.

Examples

let toggle = new BasemapToggle({
  view: view,
  nextBasemap: "hybrid"
});
// Adds an instance of BasemapToggle widget to the
// top right of the view.
view.ui.add(toggle, "top-right");

// Moves the zoom and BasemapToggle widgets to the
// bottom left of the view.
view.ui.move([ "zoom", toggle ], "bottom-left");

// Removes all the widgets from the bottom left of the view
view.ui.empty("bottom-left");

// Removes the compass widget from the view
view.ui.remove("compass");

// Removes all default UI components, except Attribution.
// Passing an empty array will remove all components.
view.ui.components = [ "attribution" ];

updating Inherited Property updating Booleanreadonly Inherited from View

Indicates whether the view is being updated by additional data requests to the network, or by processing received data.

Default Value:false

viewpoint Property viewpoint Viewpointautocast

Represents the current view as a Viewpoint or point of observation on the view. Setting the viewpoint immediately changes the current view. For animating the view, see goTo().

The returned Viewpoint object is an internal reference which may be modified internally. To persist the returned object, create a copy using Viewpoint.clone().

Notes

If the spatial reference of viewpoint set in the constructor does not match the spatialReference of the view, then projectOperator will be loaded dynamically.
At runtime, the projectOperator must be loaded when setting the viewPoint to a spatial reference that doesn't match the view spatial reference. You can check if the projectOperator is loaded prior to setting the center by calling projectOperator.isLoaded(). If it is not yet loaded, you can call projectOperator.load().

See also

goTo()

visibleArea Property visibleArea Polygon |null |undefinedreadonly

The visibleArea represents the visible portion of a map within the view as an instance of a Polygon. This is similar to the view extent but is a more accurate representation of the visible area especially when the view is rotated. An example use of the visible area is to spatially filter visible features in a layer view query.

See also

extent

width Property width Numberreadonly

The width of the view in pixels read from the view container element.

The view container needs to have a width greater than 0 to be displayed.

Default Value:0

widthBreakpoint Property widthBreakpoint String

A convenience property indicating the general size of the view's width. This value is determined based on where the view's width falls in the ranges defined in the breakpoints property. See the table below for a list of possible values. Use the breakpoints property to override the default thresholds.

Please refer to the styling guide for additional information on working with this.

Possible Value	Description	Default thresholds (pixels)
xsmall	The width of the view is smaller than the value set in the `xsmall` breakpoint.	< 545
small	The width of the view is between the values set in the `xsmall` and `small` breakpoints.	545 - 768
medium	The width of the view is between the values set in the `small` and `medium` breakpoints.	769 - 992
large	The width of the view is between the values set in the `medium` and `large` breakpoints.	993 - 1200
xlarge	The width of the view is larger than the value set in the `large` breakpoint.	> 1200

Possible Values:"xsmall" |"small" |"medium" |"large" |"xlarge"

See also

Example

reactiveUtils.when(
  () => view.widthBreakpoint === "xsmall",
  () => {
    // clear the view's default UI components if
    // the app is used on a mobile device
    view.ui.components = [];
  }
);

zoom Property zoom Number

Represents the level of detail (LOD) at the center of the view. A zoom level or scale is a number that defines how large or small the contents of a map appear in a map view. Zoom level is a number usually between 0 (global view) and 23 (very detailed view) and is used as a shorthand for predetermined scale values. A value of -1 means the view has no LODs. When setting the zoom value, map view converts it to the corresponding scale, or interpolates it if the zoom is a fractional number. MapView can display maps with different projections at a full range of scales, and so use scale rather than zoom level.

Setting the zoom immediately changes the current view. For animating the view, see goTo(). Setting this property in conjunction with center is a convenient way to set the initial extent of the view.

goTo()
Understanding MapView lods

Examples

view.zoom = 3;  // Sets the LOD to 3 (small map scale)
view.zoom = 18; // Sets the LOD to 18 (large map scale)

// Set the zoom level and center in the constructor
let view = new MapView({
  zoom: 10,
  center: [-120, 34],
  map: map
});

Method Details

addHandles Inherited Method addHandles(handleOrHandles, groupKey) Inherited from Accessor

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.

closePopup Method closePopup()

Closes the popup.

See also

popup
openPopup

Example

// Closes the popup if it's open
if(view.popup.visible){
 view.closePopup();
}

destroy Inherited Method destroy() Inherited from View

Destroys the view, and any associated resources, including its map, popup, and UI elements. These can no longer be used once the view has been destroyed. To prevent these components from being destroyed, remove them from the view before calling destroy().

// remove popup and legend from the view so that they are not destroyed
const popup = view.popup;
view.popup = null;
view.ui.remove(legend);

// unset map from the view so that it is not destroyed
const map = view.map;
view.map = null;

// destroy the view and any remaining associated resources
view.destroy();

See also

emit Inherited Method emit(type, event){Boolean} Inherited from View

Emits an event on the instance. This method should only be used when creating subclasses of this class.

Parameters

type String

The name of the event.

event Object

optional

The event payload.

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean	`true` if a listener was notified

goTo Method goTo(target, options){Promise}

Sets the view to a given target. The target parameter can be one of the following:

[longitude, latitude] pair of coordinates
Geometry (or array of Geometry[])
Graphic (or array of Graphic[])
Viewpoint
Object with a combination of target, center, scale and rotation properties (with target being any of the types listed above). The center property is provided as a convenience to animate the MapView.center and is equivalent to specifying the target with the center Point.

This function returns a promise which resolves as soon as the new view has been set to the target. If the transition is animated, then the ongoing animation can be obtained using MapView.animation. If setting the view to the new target fails, the promise returned by the goTo() method rejects with an error. Use a catch statement, to handle the error:

view.goTo({
  center: [-126, 49]
})
.catch(function(error) {
  if (error.name != "AbortError") {
     console.error(error);
  }
});

If a tiled map service is used as the basemap and snapToZoom property is set to true in constraints, the goTo method will zoom in to fit the defined target. If snapToZoom property is set to false, the goTo method will zoom to the exact target.

Since 4.30: The goTo method now respects the user's preference for reduced motion. By default, goTo() will animate, but when the user expresses a preference for reduced motion, goTo() will navigate to the specified target without animation. It is possible to override the user's preference for reduced motion by configuring esriConfig.respectPrefersReducedMotion or on a per-call basis by specifying the animate property. However, if you override the user's preference for reduced motion, you should consider slowing down animations by adjusting the speedFactor or duration in the options parameter, or provide users with a way to slow down or stop the animation. Refer to implementing reduced motion in your applications for more information.

Parameters

target GoToTarget2D

The target location/viewpoint to animate to. When using an object for target, use the properties in GoToTarget2D.

options GoToOptions2D

optional

Animation options for controlling the duration and easing of the animation. See the properties defined in GoToOptions2D for object specifications.

Returns

Type	Description

view.goTo(pt);

let opts = {
  duration: 5000  // Duration of animation will be 5 seconds
};

// go to point at LOD 15 with custom duration
view.goTo({
  target: pt,
  zoom: 15
}, opts);

// go to same point using center and zoom
view.goTo({
  center: [-126, 49],
  zoom: 15
});

on Inherited Method on(type, listener){Object} Inherited from View

Registers an event handler on the instance. Call this method to hook an event with a listener.

Parameters

type String|String []

An event or an array of events to listen for.

listener Function

The function to call when the event fires.

Returns

Type Description

Object

Returns an event handler with a remove() method that should be called to stop listening for the event(s).

Property	Type	Description
remove	Function	When called, removes the listener from the event.

Example

openPopup Method openPopup(options){Promise}

Opens the popup at the given location with content defined either explicitly with content or driven from the PopupTemplate of input features. This method sets the popup's visible property to true. Users can alternatively open the popup by directly setting the visible property to true.

A Popup instance is created and assigned to popup the first time openPopup() is called, unless popup is null. The popup then processes the click event.

When calling this method, to prevent the popup from opening when clicking on the view, set popupEnabled to false to stop event propagation on the view.

The popup will only display if the view's size constraints in dockOptions are met or the location property is set to a geometry.

Parameters

Specification

options Object

optional

Defines the location and content of the popup when opened.

Specification

title String

optional

Sets the title of the popup.

location Point

optional

Sets the popup's location, which is the geometry used to position the popup.

fetchFeatures Boolean

optional

Default Value: false

When true, indicates the popup should fetch the content of this feature and display it. If no PopupTemplate exists, a default template is created for the layer if defaultPopupTemplateEnabled = true. In order for this option to work, there must be a valid view and location set.

features Graphic []

optional

Sets the popup's features, which populate the title and content of the popup based on each graphic's PopupTemplate.

promises Promise[]

optional

Sets pending promises on the popup. The popup will display once the promises resolve. Each promise must resolve to an array of Graphics.

featureMenuOpen Boolean

optional

Default Value: false

This property enables multiple features in a popup to display in a list rather than displaying the first selected feature. Setting this to true allows the user to scroll through the list of features returned from the query and choose the selection they want to display within the popup.

updateLocationEnabled Boolean

optional

Default Value: false

When true, indicates the popup should update its location for each paginated feature based on the selectedFeature's geometry.

collapsed Boolean

optional

Default Value: false

When true, indicates that only the popup header will display.

shouldFocus Boolean

optional

Default Value: false

When true, indicates that the focus should be on the popup after it has been opened.

Returns

Type	Description
Promise	Resolves when the popup is opened. Calling `openPopup()` or `closePopup()` again rejects the Promise.

when Inherited Method when(onFulfilled, onRejected){Promise} Inherited from View

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

Parameters

onFulfilled Function

optional

The function to call when the promise resolves.

onRejected Function

optional

The function to execute when the promise fails.

Returns

Type	Description
Promise	Returns a new promise for the result of `onFulfilled` 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
});

whenAnalysisView Method whenAnalysisView(analysis){Promise<AnalysisView2DUnion>} Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.34 View2D since 4.31, whenAnalysisView added at 4.34.

Gets the analysis view created for the given analysis object. The returned promise resolves when the view for the given analysis has been created, or rejects with an error (for example if the analysis does not belong in analyses.

Parameter

analysis Analysis

The analysis for which to obtain the analysis view.

Returns

Type	Description
Promise<AnalysisView2DUnion>	Resolves to an instance of the analysis view for the provided analysis.

Example

// Create a slice analysis
let analysis = new ElevationProfileAnalysis();

// add to the view
view.analyses.add(analysis);

view.whenAnalysisView(analysis)
  .then((analysisView) => {
    // The analysis view for the analysis
  })
  .catch((error) => {
    // An error occurred during the analysis view creation
  });

whenLayerView Inherited Method whenLayerView(layer){Promise<LayerView>} Inherited from View

Gets the LayerView created on the view for the given layer. The returned promise resolves when the layer view for the given layer has been created, or rejects with an error (for example if the layer is not part of the view, or if the layer type is not supported in this view).

Parameter

layer Layer

The layer for which to obtain its LayerView.

Returns

Type	Description
Promise<LayerView>	Resolves to an instance of LayerView for the specified layer.

Sample - StreamLayer

Example

// Create a feature layer from a url pointing to a Feature Service
let layer = new FeatureLayer(url);

map.add(layer);

view.whenLayerView(layer)
    .then(function(layerView) {
      // The layerview for the layer
    })
    .catch(function(error) {
      // An error occurred during the layerview creation
