Override LayerList layer name in 3.16

evtguy

So, awhile back, I posted this thread about changing the label associated with a layer checkbox in the LayerList widget. The solution posted in that thread (setting id: "some layer name") does not seem to work using the 3.16 API version of the layerList widget.

code snippet:

        // Initialize and set up the LayerList
        layerWidget = new LayerList({
           map: app.map,
           showLegend: true,
           showOpacitySlider: true,
           showSubLayers: false,
           layers: [
                {layer:wsdotBridgeLayer,
                visibility:true,
                id:"WSDOT Bridges"
                },
                {layer: KingCoBridgeLayer,
                visibility:true,
                id:"King County Bridges"                
                },
                {layer:priorityRoadsLayer,
                visibility:true,
                id:"Priority Roads"
                }
           ]},"layerList");
        layerWidget.startup();

Result at load:

Has anybody encountered this and found a solution?

The LayerList also honors the title option in the layers array, I find that helpful for individual feature layers:

var layerList = new LayerList({
    map: mapMain,
    showLegend: true,   
    layers: [{
    layer: lyrSide,
                title: "Sidewalks",
    },
    {
    layer: lyrBike,
                title: "Bicycle Lanes",
    },
    {
    layer: lyrTrans,
                title:"Transit Lines"
  },
  {
    layer: lyrShlt,
                title:"Sheltered Stops"
  },
  {
    layer: lyrStops,
                title:"Transit Stops"
  }]
    //layerInfo
   
    }, "layerListDiv");
