Line Rendering Problem (Feature Layer vs Dynamic Layer)

AR — Sun, 12 Dec 2021 00:04:22 GMT

Hi,

I'm going crazy here.

When I add a map as a FeatureLayer, the lines are rendered on top of each other (incorrect), however when added as a DynamicLayer, it's displayed just how it's displayed in ArcMap (correct).

Here's my simple simple code:

var myURL = "http://..." 

var fl = new esri.layers.FeatureLayer(myURL+ /layerIndex)
var dl = new esri.layers.ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer(myURL)

map.addLayer(fl) 
map.addLayer(dl)

Please look at my attachments to get a better idea. You can ignore the red lines on dynamicLayer.png. What's important are the black lines.

Thanks,
Aaron

Did some digging, and found my answer-

If you define your lines as cartographic lines in ArcMap, and proceed to call them in a feature layer on your client side javascript, the cartographic lines get "downgraded" to simple lines.

...Anyone out there find a workaround?

Here's the passage and article:

For line layers, simple line symbols are supported. If other symbols are used, the feature service downgrades them to simple line symbols. For example, a cartographic line symbol in the map document may be drawn as a simple solid line in a feature service client. Also, if a line symbol has multiple layers, the feature service considers only the top layer.
