featureLayer.refresh() not updating symbology after attribute edit

TylerWaring — Wed, 27 Aug 2014 14:43:08 GMT

Greetings,

I have a flex application that updates the attributes of a feature layer. I am able to update the attributes just fine at run time. However, when I run myFeatureLayer.refresh() in my editsComplete event handler, the symbology of my layer does not update. It is not until I reload the application that my edits are reflected in the symbology. Am I missing soimething?

Thanks, Tyler

Tyler,

Have you set disableClientCaching on the FeatureLayer?

Thanks for getting back with me so soon. In my code I just tried setting the featurelayer's disableClientCaching property to true and it does not work.

I am however, able to remove my feature layer from my map and then add it back in to force the symbology update. It's too choppy a ride for production use though.

Thanks, Tyler

Tyler,

Strange... Normally setting the disableClientCaching to true and calling refresh is all that is needed.
