Why GraphicsLayer points opacity not working

AdirCohen — Thu, 29 Apr 2021 10:13:32 GMT

Hi, i'm trying to add some symbols(picture/simple marker) on the map and wants to make their opacity=1.

For some reason the Basemap elements (roads and buildings) shows behind those symbols.

I've tried some solutions like:

graphicsLayer.opacity = 1;

but still the same problem.

Its happens only when i'm using a PortalItem as my basemap:

let portalItem = new PortalItem({
  id: "4f2e99ba65e34bb8af49733d9778fb8e",
});
let basemap = new Basemap({
  portalItem: portalItem,
});
var map = new Map({
  basemap: basemap,
});

Is anyone can help me with that?

Also If there's any other correct way to use that basemap i'd like to know.

thanks.

What does the symbols for your graphics look like? If you are using rgba values for the color, that will add transparency to those graphics on the map.

Hi, for now i'm trying to add a a picture-marker as my symbol, PNG type, with no transparency.

Also when I tried a simple-marker it was only a color value ('red' for example) and not RGB, both acts the same.

I think its all about the Basemap. when I'm using another ID it looks ok. is that making any sense? if so, there is another way to use it? thanks.
