Time-aware layer was not recognized by Time-Slider widget when added using LocalLayer widget

RoseZhou — Fri, 16 Dec 2016 20:41:27 GMT

Hi, I have a time aware map service. When added it to ArcGIS online web map, it works very well. But when using WAB developer edition and added the layer using LocalLayer widget, this layer is not recognized by the Time-Slider widget. Any ideas?

Thanks

Rose,

The Local Layer widget does not support time aware layer as of yet.

You may want to review this code change. I use Local Layer 2.2 and Time Slider 1.4.

TIME AWARE LAYERS is the "Group Heading"

Property Transfers_0 is the Layer Name and ID

Hope this helps!

Time slider Version 1.4

      onOpen: function() {
        this._initLayerInfosObj().then(lang.hitch(this, function() {
//BELL CHANGE
          if(!this.layerInfosObj.getLayerInfoById('TIME AWARE LAYERS','Property Transfers_0').isVisible()){
            this.layerInfosObj.getLayerInfoById('TIME AWARE LAYERS','Property Transfers_0').setTopLayerVisible(true);
          }
          if (!this.hasVisibleTemporalLayer()) {
            html.setStyle(this.noTimeContentNode, 'display', 'block');
            html.setStyle(this.timeContentNode, 'display', 'none');
            this._showed = true;
          } else {
            if (!this._showed) {
              this.showTimeSlider();
            }
          }
        }));
      },

Rich:

Thank you very much.

I am using LocalLayer widget ver2.0 and TimeSlider widget ver2.1. I added the code you suggested, But still does not work.

I really like the LocalLayer widget. Any idea how to make it to support time aware layer?

Any ideas will be great!

Thanks in advance
