ArcGIS WebMap - MapImage Sub Layer Visibility

JithenSingh — Sun, 12 Dec 2021 03:06:31 GMT

Hi - Am doing some R&D and have the SampleWorldCities coming from ArcGIS Enterprise - https://arcgis.cloud.eaglegis.co.nz/portal/home/webmap/viewer.html?webmap=f16c88ffa42a425e9e26ee932a3193d4

Using JS API 3.27, I need to toggle off the sub layers, for example "World".

I am able to get all of the layer ID's from -

map._layers;‍

If I then call -

layer = map.getLayer(layersToSet[i].layerID);
layer.hide()‍‍‍‍

The map does not toggle this layer off in the WebMap but the properties show that it has.

Am I missing something? Or is there another way of handling this with using ArcGIS Server services with within WebMap?

Thanks

Jithen,

Here is a working example of turning off a layer in your webmap.

Thanks. This uses a legend to getLegendLayers and then the layer ID following to layer.hide().

I already have valid layer ID’s through the approach that I have used, just that layer.hide() doesn’t do anything. Well it does - and re-querying the layer shows it as not visible but it still shows on the map.

I don’t need a legend so keen to investigate other options.

Thanks

Jithen,

??? you can remove the whole legend portion and the code I provided still works using your webmap...

Thanks - Just had a deeper look. Should clarify that I am looking to turn off the sub layers within the service so not

SampleWorldCities_9560

But instead -

SampleWorldCities_9560_2

I have tried to turn off the main layer and that works OK. Turning off the sub layer for example for World does not work?

Thanks

So effectively if I do the following -

var lyr = map.getLayer("SampleWorldCities_9560_2");
lyr.hide();

It does not work.

Jithen,

Because you have to get the parent layer (ArcGISDyanmicMapServiceLayer class) then use the setVisibleLayers method on that layer.

map.getLayer("SampleWorldCities_9560")‍.setVisibleLayers([2]);‍

Thanks! - I did wonder about this. Means extra coding to traverse the layers. Ok - Thanks
