Property Details

availableFields

Property
availableFields String[]readonly

A list of attribute fields fetched for each feature including fields required for layer's renderer labelingInfo, elevationInfo, and additional fields defined on the outFields properties. The availableFields property is populated when the layerView has finished updating. The availableFields is used when filtering or querying features on the client-side.

Example
const layerView = await view.whenLayerView(layer);

// availableFields will become available once the
// layerView finishes updating
await reactiveUtils.whenOnce(() => !layerView.updating);

try {
  const results = await layerView.queryFeatures({
    outFields: layerView.availableFields,
    where: "DEW_POINT > 10"
  });
  console.log(results.features.length, " features returned");
} catch(error) {
  console.log("query failed: ", error);
}

dataUpdating

Property
dataUpdating Booleanreadonly
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.28 GeoJSONLayerView since 4.11, dataUpdating added at 4.28.

Indicates if the layer view is updating its data and new features are being fetched. It becomes false when layer queries finish executing. Watch this property along with updating property to know when to re-execute client-side queries after an update cycle. For example, a query that returns the number of features available in the layer view should be executed when dataUpdating becomes false. The dataUpdating property can only be true when updating is also true.

Example
// watch layer view updating and dataUpdating to get the count of features
// available in layer view. Only execute the query once new features are fetched.
let dataWasUpdated = lv.dataUpdating;
reactiveUtils.watch(() => [lv.updating, lv.dataUpdating],
  ([updating, dataUpdating]) => {
  dataWasUpdated ||= dataUpdating;
  if (!updating && dataWasUpdated) {
   dataWasUpdated = false;
   lv.queryFeatureCount().then((results)=>{
      console.log("number of features in layerView", results);
    });
  }
});

featureEffect

Property
featureEffect FeatureEffectautocast
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.22 GeoJSONLayerView since 4.11, featureEffect added at 4.22.

The featureEffect can be used to draw attention features of interest. It allows for the selection of features via a filter, and an includedEffect and excludedEffect are applied to those features that respectively pass or fail the filter requirements.

If the featureEffect is set on the layer, it will be inherited by layerView.featureEffect unless the developer overrides it on the layerView. The layerView.featureEffect will take precedence over layer.featureEffect if both properties are set.

Known Limitations

Examples
// gray out features that fall outside of the 3 mile buffer of the mouse's location
// by setting feature effect on excluded features
layerView.featureEffect = new FeatureEffect({
  filter: new FeatureFilter({
    geometry: filterGeometry,
    spatialRelationship: "intersects",
    distance: 3,
    units: "miles"
  }),
  excludedEffect: "grayscale(100%) opacity(30%)"
});
// Apply a drop-shadow feature effect to the features that intersect the borough boundaries,
// while applying blur and brightness effects to the features that are excluded from filter criteria.
// The resulting map will make it easier to spot if the residents are more likely to experience deprivation
// if they live on a borough boundary.
const featureFilter = new FeatureFilter({
  where: "BoroughEdge='true'"
});
layerView.featureEffect = new FeatureEffect({
  filter: featureFilter,
  includedEffect: "drop-shadow(3px, 3px, 3px, black)",
  excludedEffect: "blur(1px) brightness(65%)"
});

filter

Property
filter FeatureFilterautocast

The attribute, geometry, and time extent filter. Only the features that satisfy the filter are displayed on the view.

Example
// display rain gauges where their water percent is over 30%
// and if the gauges are completely contained by the 10-mile
// buffer around the filter geometry
featureLayerView.filter = new FeatureFilter({
  where: "percentile >= 30",
  geometry: filterPolygon,
  spatialRelationship: "contains",
  distance: 10,
  units: "miles"
});

hasAllFeatures

Property
hasAllFeatures Booleanreadonly
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.29 GeoJSONLayerView since 4.11, hasAllFeatures added at 4.29.

Indicates whether the layer view contains all available features from the service. In a 2D MapView, it returns true for point feature layers when all points have been loaded by the application. Similarly, in a 3D SceneView, it returns true for point, line, and polygon feature layers if all available features have been successfully loaded. Otherwise, it returns false. This property should be checked only once after the layer has finished loading and fetching its data.

hasAllFeaturesInView

Property
hasAllFeaturesInView Booleanreadonly
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.29 GeoJSONLayerView since 4.11, hasAllFeaturesInView added at 4.29.

Property
hasFullGeometries Booleanreadonly
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.29 GeoJSONLayerView since 4.11, hasFullGeometries added at 4.29.

Indicates whether the layer view has geometries at full resolution. This property returns true only if the layer has loaded all geometries at full resolution without quantization. In a 2D MapView, it returns true for point feature layers when all points have been loaded by the application. Similarly, in a 3D SceneView, it returns true for point, line, and polygon feature layers if all available features have been successfully loaded. Otherwise, it returns false. This property should be checked only once after the layer has finished loading and fetching its data.

highlightOptions

Property
highlightOptions HighlightOptions
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.26 GeoJSONLayerView since 4.11, highlightOptions added at 4.26.

Options for configuring the highlight. Use the highlight() method on the layer view to highlight a feature. The layerView's highlightOptions will take precedence over the view's highlightOptions if both properties are set.

Known Limitations

  • The highlightOptions on layer views are only supported in 2D MapView.
Example
// Features in the layerview will be highlighted with bright
// yellow colors in the map.
const layerView = await view.whenLayerView(layer);
layerView.highlightOptions = {
  color: [255, 255, 0, 1],
  haloOpacity: 0.9,
  fillOpacity: 0.2
};

layer

Inherited
Property
layer Layerreadonly
Inherited from LayerView

The layer being viewed.

maximumNumberOfFeatures

Property
maximumNumberOfFeatures Number

The maximum number of features that can be displayed at a time. This setting currently only applies to SceneView. By default, the maximum number of features is estimated automatically depending on the symbology, geometry complexity, memory consumption and display quality profile.

Changing this setting to a higher value may lead to a significant decrease in performance and increase in memory usage.

Known Limitations

The maximumNumberOfFeatures is only supported in 3D SceneViews.

maximumNumberOfFeaturesExceeded

Property
maximumNumberOfFeaturesExceeded Boolean

Signifies whether the maximum number of features has been exceeded. Not all features could be displayed when this value is true. This setting currently only applies to SceneView.

Known Limitations

The maximumNumberOfFeaturesExceeded is only supported in 3D SceneViews.

queryFeatures

Method
queryFeatures(query, options){Promise<FeatureSet>}

Executes a Query against features available for drawing in the layerView and returns a FeatureSet. If query parameters are not provided, then a default query is created using createQuery() method and all features that pass the layer view filter are returned along with their attributes that are available on the client. For client-side attribute queries, relevant fields should exist in availableFields list for the query to be successful.

To execute a query against all the features in a layer rather than only those in the client, you must use the queryFeatures() method on the layer.

Known Limitations

  • Attribute values used in attribute queries executed against layerViews are case sensitive.
  • Spatial queries are executed against quantized geometries in the layerView. The resolution of layerView geometries, is only as precise as the scale resolution of the view. Therefore, the results of the same query could be different when executed at different scales. This also means that geometries returned from any layerView query will likewise be at the same scale resolution of the view.
  • Spatial queries have the same limitations as those listed in the projection engine documentation.
  • Spatial queries are not currently supported if the FeatureLayerView has any of the following SpatialReferences:
    • GDM 2000 (4742) – Malaysia
    • Gsterberg (Ferro) (8042) – Austria/Czech Republic
    • ISN2016 (8086) - Iceland
    • SVY21 (4757) - Singapore
Parameters
query Query autocast
optional
Autocasts from Object

Specifies the attributes and spatial filter of the query. When this parameter is not passed to queryFeatures() method, then a default query is created using createQuery() method and all features that pass the layer view filter are returned along with their attributes that are available on the client. To only return features visible in the view, set the geometry parameter in the query object to the view's extent.

options Object
optional

An object with the following properties.

Specification
signal AbortSignal
optional

when

Inherited
Method
when(callback, errback){Promise}
Inherited from LayerView

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
});
