symbolPreview not working with fill symbols

BorisLutskovsky — Fri, 06 Apr 2018 16:54:16 GMT

I'm having some issues using the symbolPreview for any fill symbols. it works fine for simple-marker, but if I use a simple-fill symbol, nothing renders and I get a 404 error for https://js.arcgis.com/4.6/esri/symbols/patterns/solid.png

var s = new Symbol({

type: 'simple-marker',

color: 'red',

size: 12

}); //this works.

var s2 = new Symbol({

type: 'simple-fill',

style: 'solid',

color: 'red'

}); //this doesn't work.

symbolPreview.renderPreviewHTML(s, {

node: element.getElementById("preview"),

size: s.size ? s.size : 12

});

Boris,

Try commenting out the following line: "style: solid" from the fill symbol. I was receiving the same display issue, but without the 404 error until I removed the style property.

thank you. that worked for me as well. But I can't understand why it worked.

and obviously deleting a property of the object after creating it is not optimal.
