Support for "Unique values, many fields" symbology?

KrisFoster — Mon, 23 Nov 2015 17:27:20 GMT

Any indication on when / if this will be supported for creating ArcGIS Runtime Content? Currently I'm working around this by creating multiple layers in my Mxd for the same feature class with definition queries to simulate the behavior, but it would be nice to have this symbology type supported.

Hey Kris,

Could you send me a simple reproducer (mxd, database) with information what you are doing so I can have a look? You can link the source to GeoNet or send it directly to me akajanus@esri.com.

And just for reminder, that if you want to define rendering information in the client, you should be able to define UniqueValueRenderer with many fields using renderers in the API.

Hi Antti,

Yep, here are the reproduction steps. Can do this with any data.

1) Create symbology based on multiple fields.

2) Choose File -> Share As -> ArcGIS Runtime Content

3) Click on the Analyze button and see that the layer symbology is not supported.

We have the same issue. +1 on this request

Just a fast update for this. This is in the backlog for implementation on the featureservice level and up.

Any update on getting this implemented at the feature service level? It has been over two years.

Any idea if this will be implemented? It has been over three years?

FWIW - A (perhaps) more straightforward workaround is to concatenate all the values you wish to use into a new field and then use the new field for the unique values. This is not ideal, of course, if you have new features and/or edits coming in that require you to keep the field updated.

Some details on implementing this technique are described here: Error: Error 00085: Layer uses an unsupported renderer (Feature Service)

I've modified the sample code offered with the UniqueValueRenderer so that it renders on the client side based on 3 fields.
