view

Property

The view associated with the component.

Note: The recommended approach is to fully migrate applications to use map and scene components and avoid using MapView and SceneView directly. However, if you are migrating a large application from widgets to components, you might prefer a more gradual transition. To support this use case, the SDK includes this view property which connects a component to a MapView or SceneView. Ultimately, once migration is complete, the Editor component will be associated with a map or scene component rather than using the view property.
