4.29 - HitTest not CORRECT

michaelpoa — Thu, 01 Feb 2024 08:50:21 GMT

I have a FeatureLayer with 2 Graphics and rendering them with CIM symbols: '0'

My HitTest function:

view.on("click", (event) => { view.hitTest(event).then((result) => { ... } }

When clicking next to the graphic. hitTest is still returning these graphics sometimes. It looks like the click area is sometimes larger than it should.

The green marker is the position of the mouse click event.

When clicking at the red spot, no graphics in hitResults.

Sometimes it even triggers the wrong graphic.

Thanks

Hello @UndralBatsukh ,

Nice to see you here. I noticed that the MapView.hitTest method in version 4.29 can retrieve features from the vectorTileLayer, which is a great feature. However, in my testing, I found that the SceneView.hitTest method does not currently support this functionality. I would like to inquire if there are any plans to make the SceneView.hitTest method also support retrieving features from the vectorTileLayer? Additionally, Do you happen to know the approximate release date for version 4.29? Thank you so much!

Hi there,

VectorTIleLayer hitTest will only be supported in 2D MapView at version 4.29. We will definitely add support it in 3D SceneView. Hopefully sooner than later.
