Web Tiled Layer
A layer that can visualize image tiles from non-ArcGIS web services or local tile caches based on a URI template. This layer provides a simple way to integrate non-ArcGIS Services as a layer in a map. The URL template usually follows a pattern similar to https://{subDomain}.server.org/path/{level}/{col}/{row}.png, where:
"subDomain" is one of the strings in the subDomains list
"level" corresponds to a zoom level
"col" represents the column of the tile
"row" represents the row of the tile
The URL should be arranged to reflect how the tiles are organized in the cache or on the server, and can point to a web server (https://) or to a local file cache (file://).
The tiles retrieved by this class are accessed directly by URL. Because the service is only providing images, you are responsible for manually setting the attribution text on the map or scene view.
To create a custom service tiled layer whose URL follows the above pattern (or a similar pattern), you can extend this class. Alternatively, you can extend the super class ServiceImageTiledLayer, in which you implement a required method to set the request information for a given LOD, column, and row. Extending WebTiledLayer, however, has no such requirement.
An ErrorType.CommonInvalidArgument exception will be thrown when attempting to load a layer with invalid URI template.
If TileInfo is not specified, tiles are assumed to be in the OpenStreetMap tiling scheme, with 256x256 PNG tiles at 96 DPI, the WebMercator projection, and a FullExtent of -180, -85.0511, 180, 85.051.
Functional characteristics
Tiles are fetched on demand using the specified URI template. Tiles are typically rendered and cached on the server but may be generated on demand by some services. Web tiled layers do not support identify, query, selection, or time.
Specifying sub-domains from which the layer will request tiles allows the load to be more evenly distributed among servers.
Performance characteristics
Web tiled layer requires a connection to the service at all times. Performance is similar to other raster tile layers.

Properties
The collection of sub-domains that can be used for the "{subDomain}" key in the WebTiledLayer.urlTemplate. At least one sub-domain must be provided if the WebTiledLayer.urlTemplate contains a {subDomain} key. Note: the value of WebTiledLayer.subDomains cannot be changed after this layer was loaded.
The URI template for the this web tiled layer. The template uses the {subDomain} (optional), {level}, {row}, and {col} keys to note how the layer should construct the URI for requesting individual tiles. The URI should be arranged to reflect how the tiles are arranged in the cache or on the server, and can point to a web server (https://) or to a local file cache (file://). Note: the value of WebTiledLayer.urlTemplate cannot be changed after this layer was loaded.
Inherited properties
The attribution string for the image tiled layer.
The brightness of the layer.
A flag indicating whether the layer content's visibility can be changed. A flag indicating whether the layer content visibility can be changed. Will return false if an error occurs.
The description for the layer.
The full extent of this layer, which is the extent where all layer data is contained. You can use this to zoom to all of the data contained in this layer. For feature layers, the extent is retrieved from its com.arcgismaps.data.FeatureTable.extent.
The unique identifying string for the layer, as specified in a map or scene. The id is used by other parts of this API to refer to a specific Layer, such as in a set of com.arcgismaps.geotriggers.FeatureFenceParameters or a com.arcgismaps.mapping.floor.FacilityLayerDefinition. If not supplied, all layers will be assigned a unique id when created.
True if the layer supports identify, false otherwise. The value of this property may not be correct until the layer is in a fully loaded state.
The load status.
The maximum scale for the layer. The maximum scale at which this layer is visible. If the map or scene is zoomed in beyond this scale, the layer will not be visible. A value of 0 means there is no maximum scale threshold and the layer will be visible at the smallest scale available for the map or scene. If the value is nil, there is no maximum scale. All of the connected map and scene views will be updated.
The minimum scale for the layer. The minimum scale at which this layer is visible. If the map or scene is zoomed out beyond this scale, the layer will not be visible. A value of 0 means there is no minimum scale threshold and the layer will be visible at the largest scale available for the map or scene. If the value is nil, there is no minimum scale. All of the connected map and scene views will be updated.
Controls how a tile request that returns 'NoData' is resampled. Zooming in can result in tile requests with no tiles at the requested level of detail. In this case, there are options that control what to display where the tile should be including:
A flag indicating whether the layer content participates in the legend. A flag indicating whether the layer content is shown in the legend.
The spatial reference of the layer.
The sub layer contents of a layer content.
A SharedFlow that emits when the visibility of the layer changes.
Functions
Clones the WebTiledLayer.
Inherited functions
Cancels loading metadata for the Loadable object.
Fetches the list of legend info.
Returns the layer content's effective visibility at the specified scale. Returns the effective layer content visibility. This effective visibility takes care of the effective visibility of the parents at the specified scale. Will return false if an error occurs.
