Updating symbol attributes

ClayHarter

I am trying to dynamically update the attributes of  symbols of  existing graphics object. I can iterate over my existing graphics objects and update the  symbol attributes but my MapView does not display the updated  objects.  I even tried clearing the graphics layer and adding the updated graphics objects.  Is there any way to force a redraw?  My test code looks like  this:

function highlightTest(){
   var highlightSymbol = new SimpleMarkerSymbol({
   color: [0, 255, 0],
   outline: new SimpleLineSymbol({
   color: [0, 255, 255],
   width: 2
   })
  });
   var existingGraphics= pointLayer.graphics.clone();
   pointLayer.clear();
   existingGraphics.forEach(function(item, i){
  item.symbol=highlightSymbol;
   pointLayer.add(item);
  });
}

I suspect I am missing something....

Clay,

I think there's a few things going on here. The clone() method wasn't implemented on all classes in beta3, so calling graphic.clone() returns an error. That's one issue. Another (as Robert already alluded to) is the redraw functionality isn't really there in beta3. It will be implemented for 4.0 final though.
