Popup after layer refresh: unable to set features

MichalGasparovic

Hi,

I have the layer that refreshes periodically, and I've noticed that once I have the popup opened, then its content goes blank, though it still contains some data (features). 

So I've tried to implement something that will grab the last ObjectID and after refresh to find it in the data and set the popup features object to that particular feature, but it doesn't appear to be working. See the sample

Popup issue after refresh 

In the sample above, the featurelayer refreshes every 5 seconds. You can clearly see how the popup behaves.

Then un-comment last few lines in the that set the popup features parameter to new feature. It seems like it's unable to render it or something else.

Thanks

Thanks Rob.

So I thought the trick was in re-setting the popupTemplate ... your solution works on that sample but not in my application which I found surprising. I've found some workaround as well and that is to clear the features by providing the empty array and then resetting the features. What I also find lacking is the ability of the popup to source the 'z' value from the elevation layer. It does it initially, but after refresh I need to set it myself.
