How to use Advanced Symbology on a GeodatabaseFeatureTable

Anonymous User

Hi all

A GeodatabaseFeatureServiceTable (i.e. from an online feature service) has a property called useAdvancedSymbology​, but for some reason a GeodatabaseFeatureTable (i.e. from a local geodatabase) doesn't.

Is there anyway to display features from a local geodatabase using Advanced Symbology?

I want to symbolise a line as a two parallel lines of different colours which works fine using Advanced Symbology but otherwise it just arbitrarily displays only one of the lines.

Here is a workaround:

Publish your feature service with the symbology you want. Add the layer to your app using the GeodatabaseFeatureServiceTable and save the render json info as a json file from within your app using code such as:

app.folder.writeJsonFile(layer.name + ".json", layer.renderer.json)

Copy this json file to your app folder, then apply this json file to a renderer to use with your GeodatabaseFeatureTable. e.g.:

   UniqueValueRenderer{

   id: rendererFromJsonFile;

   Component.onCompleted: {

   rendererFromJsonFile.json =  app.folder.readJsonFile("renderer.json" );

}  }
