Hello!

I created a simple code with example WMS Layer on the Scene View with the ground elevation.

Codepen: https://codepen.io/tomaszbarczyk/pen/VwYQRVN?editors=1000 

I observed that at certain map tilt WMS Layer is not covering the whole visible area whereas it should. Actually WMS layer should cover terrain selected on this screenshot:

Is there any option to fix that behaviour? Any changes in layer configuration are needed?

Regards,

Tomek

Dear Esri Staff and ArcGis Developers! ArcGIS API for JavaScript

Anyone notices this problem on your side?

Sorry for pressing but that issue is quite important for me.

Hello Tomasz,
This is a know limitation for WMS and MapImageLayer. This visual limitations just happens if user tilt that the far away hills/mountains get seen. 
Workaround: Set the tilt constraints to avoid that the user can tilt to this point where you can see this effect
SceneView | constraints 

Example:

        var view = new SceneView({
          container: "viewDiv",
          map: map,
          constraints: {
            tilt: {
              max: 60
            }
          },
        });

This technical limitation would be solved in the future.

Sascha
