Layers subordinates not staying checked

RudoDuncan — Fri, 18 Mar 2016 20:17:35 GMT

How can I make my application subordinates stay checked so that my users do not have to check the layer and then the layer subtype every time they reopen the application. The grouped layer and all its subordinates are all un-checked every time they refresh the browser.I looked at the web map on AGOL and everything is saved correctly.

Rudo,

At version 1.3 of WAB the state of layers being turned on or off and the maps extent was saved each time you exit the map and unfortunately the re-application of the layer visible state is not working properly. If you refer to this thread there is a workaround for disabling this feature:

I fixed the issue with the map extent based on commenting this out

However, I am still having the issue with the layer visible state. Do I use one of these to take care of that issue?

Rudo,

The code line you commented out above will fix both issues once you clear your browsers cache completely. The layer state portion is controlled by the appStateManager as well.
