Delay in getting layers image on the map

SaurabhDudhe — Thu, 02 Jan 2025 05:09:43 GMT

I am using the JavaScript API to check if the view is created for all the layers and based on it I am showing a spinner in my application to indicate the end user that the layer loading is in progress and once the layer are loaded the spinner is stopped.

I am using the whenLayerView method but the internal API which renders the layers image takes time and
I do not have any control to show the application loading state.
Please suggest which method I can use here to have access to an event for displaying a loading state in the browser until the layers image is fetched.

Version - 4.26.0
Reference - https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/latest/api-reference/esri-views-View.html#whenLayerView

Image API - /MapServer/export?bbox=-13672105.657400718%2C7676081.658810125%2C-12602598.757634586%2C7925572.119132928&bboxSR=102100&imageSR=102100&size=1749%2C408&dpi=96&format=png32&transparent=true&layers=show%3A0%2C1%2C2%2C3%2C4%2C5%2C6%2C7%2C8%2C9%2C10%2C11%2C12%2C13&f=image

I would recommend watching the updating property on the View. For example:

view.watch("updating", function(newValue, oldValue, propertyName, target) { activityIndicator.style.display = ((newValue) ? "inline" : "none"); });
