Feature Layer Points not Showing

CynthiaKozma — Thu, 19 Feb 2026 18:07:41 GMT

I have an SDE of about 40,000 addressing points - when I share this layer to our Portal and try to view the Feature Layer in Map Viewer, the points show up initially, but after zooming out a couple of times, the points disappear from the map. And then, they never come back. The attribute table shows all of the data, but there is no longer any geometry. The Map Image Layer works fine - and if I open the Feature Layer in Map View Classic, it shows up. I need to be able to have this layer editable (and visible), so that another department can add and change addresses as needed. Any ideas on why this layer is not visible on the map?

Have you checked the ArcGIS Server Manager logs when you encounter this issue and see if it has any errors or useful information?

There is nothing for that layer under Warnings or Severe. It is referenced under Info stating 'Using the provider information of service to lookup object - and Wait time for service request is 0 milliseconds. ??

Have you checked the spatial index?

Does the layer render in Pro correctly, after you zoom in & out?

Try rebuilding it.

So, this works as it should in ArcGIS Pro. So, I Rebuilt the Index in ArcGIS Pro, and the Feature Layer still disappears in Map Viewer. If I apply a Filter to the layer in Map Viewer (show those with name "Smith"), it will show up on the map. We did recently upgrade to 11.5 - I'm not sure if this is the problem or if it is the Feature Layer.

If I take just a subset of these points and copy and paste them, they will show up. So, I am thinking that it is related to the number of records. Is there a limitation on the number of records in the Feature Layer?
