MoveLayer not working as documented

KirkKuykendall — Sun, 12 Dec 2021 10:39:22 GMT

The documentation for ILayerContainerEdit.MoveLayer says:

The position specified by the 0-based index. If the index is invalid, the layer is moved to the bottom.

However this code doesn't move the layer to the bottom:

 Dim srcLayer = MapView.Active.GetSelectedLayers()(0)
 MapView.Active.Map.MoveLayer(srcLayer, 999)‍‍

Only 3 layers are in the map.

Hi Kirk,

The MoveLayer method does move the layer to the bottom if you pass in a valid index.

We will look into this!

But in the meantime, this code snippet will help with moving the layer to the bottom:

var srcLayer = MapView.Active.GetSelectedLayers().FirstOrDefault();
            await QueuedTask.Run(() =>
            {
                MapView.Active.Map.MoveLayer(srcLayer, (MapView.Active.Map.Layers.Count - 1));
            });‍‍‍‍‍

Thanks!
