I'm trying to access a WFL with 14 layers on it. I successfully pull all the layers off the service and display them on a map and in a layerList widget, but I would like to edit the featureLayer.title attribute to remove the prefix that ArcGIS Online adds to all layers within a WFL. (The WFL is named "Stewardship Data Aggregated by Stewardship Activity" and the individual layers have names like "Agriculture", "Wilderness", "Grazing", etc. - I want to just display the end portion of the full name.) When I console.log(featureLayer.title), I am only shown the prefix part ("Stewardship Data Aggregated by Stewardship Activity"); however, when I actually inspect the featureLayer object, I can see that the title is really something like "Stewardship Data Aggregated by Stewardship Activity - Agriculture"
Is this a bug in featureLayer.title? When I later try to substring(54) the title, it returns an empty string. What am I doing wrong?!?! (code below)
// Get feature layers for Survey ResponsessurveysArray = new Collection;for (var i = 0; i < 14; i++) {var featureLayer = new FeatureLayer({url: 'https://services.arcgis.com/7CRlmWNEbeCqEJ6a/arcgis/rest/services/Stewardship_Data_Aggregated_by_Stewardship_Activity/FeatureServer/'+i.toString(10),outFields: ["*"],popupTemplate: template})console.log(featureLayer.title)console.log(featureLayer)featureLayer.title = featureLayer.title.substring(54);console.log(featureLayer.title)console.log(featureLayer)surveysArray.add(featureLayer);}// Initialize the layer list widgetvar layerList = new LayerList({view: view,listItemCreatedFunction: function(event) {var item = event.item;if (item.layer.type != "group") {//don't show legend twiceitem.panel = {content: "legend",open: false};};// Fix the titles for Stewardship Survey Aggregated Data// if (item.layer.title.startsWith("Stewardship Data Aggregated") && item.layer.title.length > 54) {// item.layer.title = item.layer.title.substring(54);// console.log(item.layer.title)// };}});
