What is the very last event for a Map?

AdrianMarsden — Mon, 01 Dec 2014 15:44:47 GMT

I have some code. It is normally is OK in Chrome

It was flaky in IE10. The chunk that didn't work checked to see if a URL parameter was passed, if so, it set a query layer, used the passed parameter for a query task, got the extent of the query results and set map extent to it.

I had it all in my general init function. Most times in IE it would fail to re-draw the map. However a slight pan would put the map in the correct place (plus the slight pan of course)

I moved this code into the onLayersAddResult event of the map.

In IE it works a lot better,but still fails about 10% of the time.

Are any events after onLayersAddResult I can hook up to? Or any other tricks to get my timing right?

Cheers

ACM

Adrian,

Have you tried a simple setTimeout to delay execution?

Adrian,

Do you have (or can you put together) a simple test case that shows the problem?

Alas, along with my other timing issues I've had I've not got a public facing version - although I may have to for other reasons soon.,

Alternatively you could put together a simple repo case? Sometimes that helps highlight the issue and can make it easier to troubleshoot rather than trying to find the issue in a larger app.
