Setting legendLayer subLayerIds for PrintTask with Multiple Map Services

LoriEmerson_McCormack — Tue, 13 Jun 2017 21:14:52 GMT

I have successfully gotten the PrintTask to work with multiple map services with a legend. By hard-coding the list of legendLayer.subLayerIds, it works.

However, I want to look up the visible layers in the map and return an array of layer indexes and assign that array to the legendLayer.subLayerIds for each map service. I have tried various things such as (1.) using a loop and pushing each array value into legendLayer.subLayerIds, (2.) using brackets (e.g., legendLayer.subLayerIds = [returnedArray], (3.) creating a string instead of an array with commas in between each layer index (e.g., "[38,44]"). Option (3.) actually works, but even if I pass a blank string (e.g., "[ ]"), all of the visible layers for that map service are included in the print legend.

Here is the code that works with the hard-coded values for the legendLayer.subLayerIds:

Re: Setting legendLayer subLayerIds for PrintTask with Multiple Map Services

LoriEmerson_McCormack — Fri, 23 Jun 2017 16:33:55 GMT

The problem was that the array I was building considered the numbers as string rather than integer, so I had to use parseInt.

I should have included this code in my original post. I thought I was misunderstanding the subLayerIds String[] type.
