Point not appearing on multiple layers until panned

ScottWilson2 — Sat, 11 Dec 2021 11:47:58 GMT

I have a single map point which i'm adding to 2 different graphics layers. The point appears on layer 1 or 2, depending on which you select first. However, when you select the other layer the point is not visible, you need to pan the map to make it appear.

Why does adding the same point to 2 different layers stop the point displaying until panned?

thanks

I've removed my post from Friday and created a simpler example:
