renderer for graphicslayer not working?

EvanBossett

I am trying to add a renderer to a graphicslayer.  My graphics layer shows up fine and i can control the symbology manually (If i change the symbol color, it changes,etc.) 

However, if i create a renderer and add it to the layer, the "default" symbology is still retained.

Please help.

Thank you.


//CODE
symbol1 = new esri.symbol.SimpleFillSymbol().setColor(new dojo.Color([255, 0, 0,0.5]))
gl = new esri.layers.GraphicsLayer();
                                  
var attr = {"MY_VALUE":5}
gl.add(
         new esri.Graphic(
         new esri.geometry.Point(-75.03810508573053, 40.26871269474917),
         symbolX,
         attr
   )
)

map.addLayer(gl);

renderer1 = new esri.renderer.ClassBreaksRenderer(symbol1, "MY_VALUE");
renderer1.addBreak(0,3,new esri.symbol.SimpleFillSymbol().setColor(new dojo.Color([255, 0, 0,0.5])));
renderer1.addBreak(4,7,new esri.symbol.SimpleFillSymbol().setColor(new dojo.Color([0, 255, 0,0.5])));
renderer1.addBreak(8,Infinity,new esri.symbol.SimpleFillSymbol().setColor(new dojo.Color([0,0,255,0.5])));

gl.setRenderer(renderer1)

If I'm reading this correctly, you want to use the renderer symbology but the symbol you're adding to the graphic is what's being drawn. If that's the case, try using 'null' as your symbol value in the graphic constructor.
