[AppStudio for ArcGIS] Disable cache on a WebTiledLayer

JorgeFrade_Martínez — Tue, 16 Jul 2019 14:01:31 GMT

When i perform a zoom if i dont have tiles for that area, the upper level tiles was shown instead of disappear...

How i can disable that feature?

Jorge,

I don't see any property or method to disable cache on the WebTiledLayer documentation of ArcGIS Runtime SDK for Qt/QML.

I am including ArcGIS Runtime SDK for Qt‌ to see anyone in this group know the answer to this.

Thank you,

Erwin

I don't have good data to test if this works or not, but can you try setting the noDataTileBehavior property (inherited from ImageTiledLayer) to Enums.NoDataTileBehaviorBlank - https://developers.arcgis.com/qt/latest/qml/api-reference/enums-nodatatilebehavior.html

Lucas Danzinger I have the same behavior with every one of the enum options.

There you have a good data to test it. (attached)

A greeting!

Can you share your code please?

WebTiledLayer{
   visible: map.layerVisibilityOfflineTopoFire;
   templateUrl: AppFramework.userHomeFolder.filePath("ArcGIS/AppStudio/Data/MyMarvelousApp/") + "/topofire/{level}/{col}/{row}.jpg;

   noDataTileBehavior: Enums.NoDataTileBehaviorBlank;

Hi Jorge-

It seems like the no data behavior is not working on WebTiledLayer. This seems like a bug. As a workaround, could you try implementing a custom basemap with ServiceImageTiledLayer instead? It is more code but very customizable and works as you describe your requirements:

// add a mapView component
MapView {
    anchors.fill: parent
    // set focus to enable keyboard navigation
    focus: true

    // add a map to the mapview
    Map {
        Basemap {
            id: basemapOSM

            ServiceImageTiledLayer {
                noDataTileBehavior: Enums.NoDataTileBehaviorBlank

                fullExtent: Envelope {
                    spatialReference: SpatialReference { wkid: 3857 }
                    xMin: -20037508.342789244
                    xMax: 20037285.703807656
                    yMin: -20037471.205137063
                    yMax: 20037471.205137063
                }

                tileInfo: declaredTileInfo

                // use callback function to request tiles
                tileUrlCallback: function(level, row, col) {
                    var requestUrl = "/Users/luca6804/Downloads/topofire/topofire/" + level +"/" + col + "/" + row + ".jpg";
                    return requestUrl;
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

Can you try this on a SceneView?
It seems that this dosent work at all, at least for me.

Looks like the tiles show up, but the no data behavior property isn't respected in 3D - only 2D.

Re: [AppStudio for ArcGIS] Disable cache on a WebTiledLayer

JorgeFrade_Martínez — Wed, 31 Jul 2019 06:55:05 GMT

So... There is no solution? 😞

Re: [AppStudio for ArcGIS] Disable cache on a WebTiledLayer

LucasDanzinger — Thu, 01 Aug 2019 17:23:53 GMT

Unfortunately, it looks like there are 2 bugs in the software:

- web tiled layer doesn't respect no data tile behavior in 2d but serviceimagetiledlayer does

- all tiled layers don't respect no data tile behavior in 3D

Until we fix it in the API, I don't think there would be any workaround other than to try and avoid the frequency of missing data tiles.
