Event after setDefinitionExpression has been applied

StasyGrayn — Thu, 21 May 2015 14:36:53 GMT

Hi all.

I'm applying filters to a few layers at runtime like this:

layer.setDefinitionExpression();

I'd like to catch the moment, when the changes has been applied (because, as it seems, they are applied with some delay).

Can anyone advise me on how can I do that?

Thanks!

Hey Stasy,

do you apply this before the layer is drawn the first time or has the layer been in your map for a while?

If it is after, you can use the update-end event, which will fire after your layer has been redrawn.

Hello, Tim!

Thanks for the answer! I was trying that event and it hasn't worked untill I was re-checking it to post here as answer. Maybe some tricky typo or anything like that.

One more thank for the fast answer
