Legend - Hiding layers in the treeview

AndrewWhite

I would like to hide specific layers in the Legend but still have them show up on the map. I'm not talking about MapService layers which are easy to hide by not including them in the Legend.LayerIds property.

Specifically, we've got annotation sublayers that we need on the Map but are just noise on the Legend.

Within the LayerTemplate I've got a StackPanel that I'm Collapsing if it's an annotation sublayer. However, that just leaves an empty node in the Legend TreeView. I'm guessing I need to Collapse the TreeViewItem itself, but I can't figure out how to access it.

You have to hook up an handler to the legend Refreshed event and in this handler you can add/remove/change any items in the legend tree (from a layerItem, you can get the LayerItems children and so on if it's a group layer)

Wow, that seems really hacky to me. Seems like I should have the ability to use a DataConverter to evaluate the LayerItemViewModel and set the visibility of the treeview nodes. Just my 2c.

I use latest SL 2.1 version and legend control. Pl help

You can remove legend items in legendrefreshed event handler.

There is a sample in the InteractiveSDK.

The code looks like:

 
if (removeLayerItemVM != null)
  e.LayerItem.LayerItems.Remove(removeLayerItemVM);

Hi

Please help me

I can't guess where the issue is with so few infos.
What is your event handler code? Which error are you getting?

Hi

I have sucessfully removed layers. Now, I have to change the group name to Alais name. In Legend am setting LayerID to my dynamic service layer. I want to change to alias name. How do I do that?.

<esri:ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer ID="mapLayer" InitializationFailed="FeatureLayer_InitializationFailed"
Url="http://xyz/ArcGIS/rest/services/Test/MapServer"

<legend:Legend Map="{Binding ElementName=mapControl}"
                         LayerIDs= "mapLayer"
                         LayerItemsMode="Tree"
                         ShowOnlyVisibleLayers="False"
                                    x:Name="legendTOC"
                         Refreshed="Legend_Refreshed">

In my legend, group node label appear as "mapLayer" which I need to change. Howto go about?

Is that possible to remove the group layer node and only display the layers without group name?

DominiqueBroux

On event 'Refreshed', you can also change or reorganize any legend item (as you did for removing).

A LegendItemViewModel has 3 main properties that you can change:
     - Label (that you can change to your alias)
     - ImageSource
     - Description (used in tooltip)

Concerning the removal of the group layer node, the legend control has 2 built-ins mode : "Tree" and "Flat".
With the flat mode (LayerItemsMode="Flat"), the group layers are not shown, so it might be what you need.

For other specific cases, you need either to template the control or to change the layer tree by code in event 'Refreshed'.

OK. My map control has two layers 1)Dyanmic service layer and other is Featurelayer

In legend, I want to change the Feature Layer name to Alais name. How do I go about ?. In refereshed event, am seeing all dynamic service layers in e.LayerItem.LayerItems not the feature layer?. When do a quick watch am not seeing any information related to featurelayer.

Regards
SR

Refreshed event is fired once by map layer as soon as the legend infos are available for the layer.

If your map contains a dynamic map service layer and a feature layer, your event handler will be called twice.
By testing the LayerItem given by RefreshedEventArgs, you can know which layer legend you are working on.

To change a label, your code should look like:

private void Legend_Refreshed(object sender, Legend.RefreshedEventArgs e)
{
if (e.LayerItem.Layer.ID == "MyFeatureLayer") // could be a test on old label, layer type, url, ...
    e.LayerItem.Label = "MyAlias";
}
