creating a graphic layer from another feature layer

abukhan

I have a feature layer and it shows polygons.

i want to create another graphic layer from the above ..
I tried to use graphiclayer.graphicprovider = featurelayer.graphicprovider , but it did not work..
I tried creating a deep copy of the arraycollection of the featurelayer and then use that as the graphiclayer graphicprovider but that did not work

Is there any way of creating this?

Thanks

You could create two FeatureLayers where you've set your own renderer or symbol on the 2nd one. This will put more load on the network and the server though so you could duplicate the Graphics and put the copy in the GraphicsLayer.

e.g. create a shallow clone that has a reference to the same geometry and attributes:

var newG:Graphic = new Graphic(oldG.geometry, null, oldG.attributes);
graphicsLayer.add(newG);

any example of the above scenerio will be appreciated

what i wanted was:
create graphic layer from the feature layer and render it differently than the feature layer..I donot want to loose the feature layer and it will be rendered different than the graphic layer..

A Graphic is a Flash DisplayObject so it can only exist in one container at a time. You'll need to create separate instances if you want them to exist in both layers.

However it looks like the feature layer does not show (even though you make fLayer visible and gl not visible)
