Internal error: The raster layer does not have a spatial reference.

Attempting to load a set of PNG raster files but seeing the following error from the LayerViewStateChanged event.

Internal error: The raster layer does not have a spatial reference.

I don't see any way to set the spatial reference on the RasterLayer as the property only has a getter. Also, I have world files that are in the same directory as the png files.

private async Task LoadMap() { // create map Map myMap = new Map(SpatialReference.Create(3857)); myMap.Basemap = new Basemap(BasemapStyle.ArcGISOceansBase); MyMapView.Map = myMap; MyMapView.LayerViewStateChanged += MyMapView_LayerViewStateChanged; // Get the file name string filepath = GetFilesPath(); var files = Directory.GetFiles(filepath, "*.png"); foreach (var file in files) { // Load the raster file Raster myRasterFile = new Raster(file); // Create the layer RasterLayer myRasterLayer = new RasterLayer(myRasterFile); // Add the layer to the map myMap.OperationalLayers.Add(myRasterLayer); try { // Wait for the layer to load await myRasterLayer.LoadAsync(); // Set the viewpoint await MyMapView.SetViewpointGeometryAsync(myRasterLayer.FullExtent); } catch (Exception e) { MessageBox.Show(e.ToString(), "Error"); } } }

Are able to view the raster layer though?, If yes, then it's fine because the issue with rater layer reporting incorrect viewstate and error is already logged internally in our bug tracking system but hasn't been prioritized yet.

Negative - I cannot see the raster layer. Here is a dump of both the Error and Status props of the LayerViewState from the LayerViewStateChanged event. As you can see, status is 'NotVisible | Error'.

? e.LayerViewState.Status
NotVisible | Error

? e.LayerViewState.Error
{"Internal error: The raster layer does not have a spatial reference."}
Data: {System.Collections.ListDictionaryInternal}

HResult: -2146233088

Here is a dump of the e.Layer property as well. As you can see, the 'IsVisible' property is indeed true which contradicts the status above.
