declaredClass

readonlyinherited Property
Type
string
Inherited from: Accessor

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

label

Property
Type
string | null | undefined

Describes the values represented by the symbol in the Legend. If no label is provided, then a list of each value is displayed in the legend.

Example
lowDensityCommercialClass.label = "C-2 | Community Commercial";

symbol

autocast Property
Type
SymbolUnion | null | undefined

Defines the symbol used to represent features containing the given values.

Example
lowDensityCommercialClass.symbol = {
type: "simple-fill",
color: [255,179,219]
};

values

autocast Property
Type
UniqueValue[] | null | undefined

An array of unique values that should be rendered with the same symbol. This can be autocast from a single value (or an array of raw data values) if the values come only from a UniqueValueRenderer.field or UniqueValueRenderer.valueExpression. If values originate from UniqueValueRenderer.field2 or UniqueValueRenderer.field3, then this may be autocast from an object or an array of objects specifying the combinations of valid values from each field.

Examples
// Features with the value of "High" in the renderer's field
// will be represented with the symbol defined in the class.
uniqueValueClass.values = "High";
// Features with any of the values below in the renderer's field
// will be represented with the symbol defined in the class.
uniqueValueClass.values = ["R-1", "R-2", "R-3", "R-4", "R-5"];
// Features with only the combination values below from
// field, field2, and field3 in the renderer
// will be represented with the symbol defined in the class.
uniqueValueClass.values = {
value: "50,000-75,000",
value2: "Republican",
value3: "18-25"
};
// Features with any the combinations of values below from
// field and field2 in the renderer
// will be represented with the symbol defined in the class.
uniqueValueClass.values = [{
value: "Low",
value2: "Low"
}, {
value: "Low",
value2: "High"
}, {
value: "High",
value2: "Low"
}, {
value: "High",
value2: "High"
}];

fromJSON

inheritedstatic Method
Signature
fromJSON (json: any): any
Inherited from: JSONSupportMixin

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.

Parameters
ParameterTypeDescriptionRequired
json
any

A 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.

Returns
any

Returns a new instance of this class.

clone

inherited Method
Signature
clone (): this
Inherited from: ClonableMixin

Creates a deep clone of this object. Any properties that store values by reference will be assigned copies of the referenced values on the cloned instance.

Returns
this

A deep clone of the class instance that invoked this method.

toJSON

inherited Method
Signature
toJSON (): any
Inherited from: JSONSupportMixin

Converts an instance of this class to its ArcGIS portal JSON representation. See the Using fromJSON() guide topic for more information.

Returns
any

The ArcGIS portal JSON representation of an instance of this class.
