How do I change the default label in a ClassBreaksRenderer from "others"?

[DavidChevrier]

I can't seem to locate how to change the default label of the ClassBreaksRenderer.  I can change the symbol, but not the label for the legend for data that does not fall within the scope of the breaks.

David,

  I have looked high and low and have not found any way to change it. I looked for the default string of "others" in the esriBundle and it is not there so I don't know where it is coming from to change it. I have checked all the properties of ClassBreakRenderer and there is nothing there even in the private underscore properties or methods.

Maybe Kelly Hutchins​ can shed some light.

It looks like you can use the defaultLabel property to modify the others value. Doesn't look like its doc'd for ClassBreaksRenderer but it is for UniqueValueRenderer. I tested it with ClassBreaksRenderer and in my testing it worked. Here's a bit of code that shows how I set the property.

        var renderer = new ClassBreaksRenderer(symbol, "POP07_SQMI");
        renderer.addBreak(20, 25, new SimpleFillSymbol().setColor(new Color([56, 168, 0, 0.5])));
        renderer.addBreak(25, 75, new SimpleFillSymbol().setColor(new Color([139, 209, 0, 0.5])));
        renderer.addBreak(75, 175, new SimpleFillSymbol().setColor(new Color([255, 255, 0, 0.5])));
        renderer.addBreak(175, 400, new SimpleFillSymbol().setColor(new Color([255, 128, 0, 0.5])));
        renderer.addBreak(400, Infinity, new SimpleFillSymbol().setColor(new Color([255, 0, 0, 0.5])));
        renderer.defaultLabel = "Not Matched";
