The ScaleRangeSlider widget allows the user to set a minimum and maximum scale based on named scale ranges. When a layer is provided to the widget, the minScale and maxScale are set to the scale range of the layer.

The user can update the scale range by dragging thumbs across the slider to update the minScale and maxScale. The user can also change the minScale and maxScale by using the dropdowns underneath the minScaleLimit and maxScaleLimit. The thumbnail shows a preview of the scale based on the region specified.

Example
const scaleRangeSlider = new ScaleRangeSlider({
view: view,
layer: featureLayer, // scale range of this layer sets initial minScale and maxScale
region: "MX", // preview thumbnail will be of Mexico
});
view.ui.add(scaleRangeSlider, "bottom-left");
// to update the featureLayer min/max scale based on the slider
reactiveUtils.watch(
() => [scaleRangeSlider.minScale, scaleRangeSlider.maxScale],
([minScale, maxScale]) => {
featureLayer.minScale = minScale;
featureLayer.maxScale = maxScale;
}

Properties

Any properties can be set, retrieved or listened to. See the Watch for changes topic.

container

autocast inherited Property
Type
HTMLElement | null | undefined
Inherited from: Widget

The ID or node representing the DOM element containing the widget. This property can only be set once. The following examples are all valid use case when working with widgets.

Examples
// Create the HTML div element programmatically at runtime and set to the widget's container
const basemapGallery = new BasemapGallery({
view: view,
container: document.createElement("div")
});
// Add the widget to the top-right corner of the view
view.ui.add(basemapGallery, {
position: "top-right"
});
// Specify an already-defined HTML div element in the widget's container
const basemapGallery = new BasemapGallery({
view: view,
container: basemapGalleryDiv
});
// Add the widget to the top-right corner of the view
view.ui.add(basemapGallery, {
position: "top-right"
});
// HTML markup
<body>
<div id="viewDiv"></div>
<div id="basemapGalleryDiv"></div>
</body>
// Specify the widget while adding to the view's UI
const basemapGallery = new BasemapGallery({
view: view
});
// Add the widget to the top-right corner of the view
view.ui.add(basemapGallery, {
position: "top-right"
});

Default value
"actual-size"

id

inherited Property
Type
string

The unique ID assigned to the widget when the widget is created. If not set by the developer, it will default to the container ID, or if that is not present then it will be automatically generated.

label

autocast Property
Type
string

The widget's default label.

layer

Property
Type
Layer | Sublayer | null | undefined

When provided, the initial minScale and maxScale values will match the layer's.

When a tiled layer is used, the slider will be restricted from moving the slider thumbs past the lods of the layer's tiling scheme. Since version 4.28, when a MapImageLayer is used, the slider will be restricted from moving past the min/max scale defined on the map service. The unavailable range will be designated with a dashed line.

maxScale

Property
Type
number

The maximum scale of the active scale range. When the maxScale reaches the maxScaleLimit, the maxScale value becomes 0 and there is no maximum scale set.

maxScaleLimit

Property
Type
number

The lowest possible maximum scale value on the slider.

minScale

Property
Type
number

The minimum scale of the active scale range. When the minScale reaches the minScaleLimit, the minScale value becomes 0 and there is no minimum scale.

minScaleLimit

Property
Type
number

The highest possible minimum scale value on the slider.

mode

Property
Type
"range" | "max-scale-only" | "min-scale-only"
Since
ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.29

The mode of the widget, indicating which slider thumbs can be adjusted.

Default value
"range"

region

Property
Type
SupportedRegion

The region that the scale thumbnails will focus on. Each region comes from the ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code. See SupportedRegion for the list of regions that are currently supported.

Default value
"US"

showWorldValue

Property
Type
boolean
Since
ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.34

Indicates whether the world scale value is shown in the scale menu.

Default value
false

view

Property
Type
MapViewOrSceneView | null | undefined

A reference to the MapView or SceneView. Set this to link the widget to a specific view.

viewModel

autocast Property
Type
ScaleRangeSliderViewModel

The view model for this widget. This is a class that contains all the logic (properties and methods) that controls this widget's behavior. See the ScaleRangeSliderViewModel class to access all properties and methods on the widget.

visible

inherited Property
Type
boolean
Inherited from: Widget

Indicates whether the widget is visible.

If false, the widget will no longer be rendered in the web document. This may affect the layout of other elements or widgets in the document. For example, if this widget is the first of three widgets associated to the upper right hand corner of the DefaultUI, then the other widgets will reposition when this widget is made invisible. For more information, refer to the css display value of "none".

Default value
true
Example
// Hides the widget in the view
widget.visible = false;

visibleElements

Property
Type
VisibleElements

The visible elements that are displayed within the widget. This property provides the ability to turn individual elements of the widget's display on/off.

Example
scaleRangeSlider.visibleElements = {
preview: false // thumbnail preview of map will not be displayed
}

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
