Manually open Feature popup when recieve a message (from postmessage)

Gheeks — Fri, 19 Feb 2021 08:59:17 GMT

Hello,

I'm trying to open the feature popup when my map is recieving a message:

window.addEventListener("message", function (event) { if (event?.data?.type === "external") { console.log(_getAllFeaturesRecursive(featureLayer,[])); } });

By doing this, I know that I need to open my popup...

I was using a function "getAllFeaturesRecursives" that get all the features:

So I tried to put popupenable to true, but it seems to be true foreach layers...

Do you have any ideas to open the feature popup (with focus) manually (without direct events on the map?)

Thanks 🙂

You can call the .open() method of the mapView's popup and pass in the feature or content you want to display. Might be something like this...

mapView.popup.open({ location: feat[0].geometry, features: [feat[0]] });

Hey, sorry for the late feedback, i was absent for a week.

I've tried your solution and it seems to works but not really, in fact, my feat[0}.geometry seems to be null...

That's weird.

Hm...It seems there was a problem with my method to get features, and also it seems to be useless:

Special thanks to @TommyBramble 🙂
