Inheritance:: Swipe→Widget→Accessor

Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.13

The Swipe widget provides a tool to show a portion of a layer or layers on top of a map. Layers can be swiped vertically or horizontally to easily compare two layers or see what is underneath a layer.

To use the Swipe widget, set the leadingLayers and trailingLayers properties to determine what will be compared on either side of the widget. If one of these properties is not set, then the Swipe widget will overlay the existing map. The visibleElements separate the leading and trailing layers, as shown in the image below.

Known Limitations

This widget is not currently supported with a SceneView.

Example

let swipe = new Swipe({
  view: view,
  leadingLayers: [layer1, layer2],
  trailingLayers: [layer3],
  direction: "vertical", // swipe widget will move from top to bottom of view
  position: 50 // position set to middle of the view (50%)
});
view.ui.add(swipe);

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"
});

leadingLayers

autocast Property

Type: SwipeViewModel["leadingLayers"]

A collection of Layers that will show on the left or top side of the Swipe widget. See the image in the class description at the top of the page.

Default value: 25

trailingLayers

autocast Property

leadingLayers

view

Property

Type: MapView | null | undefined

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

viewModel

autocast Property

Type: SwipeViewModel

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 SwipeViewModel 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 change the visibility of individual elements of the widget's display.

Example

swipe.visibleElements = {
  divider: true,
  handle: false // handle will not display
}

Type parameters: <TResult1 = this, TResult2 = never>

Inherited from: EsriPromiseMixin

when() may be leveraged once an instance of the class is created. This method takes two input parameters: an 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

Parameter	Type	Description	Required
onFulfilled	`OnFulfilledCallback<this, TResult1> \| null \| undefined`	The function to call when the promise resolves.
onRejected	`OnRejectedCallback \| null \| undefined`	The function to execute when the promise fails.

Returns: Promise<TResult1 | TResult2>
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
});
