Unique Render, Print Task not showing Picture Marker

[AndrewMurdoch1]

Good Day

I switched from using a simple render to a unique render, but now when I print the map using the PrintTask, it's now showing the picture markers the same as before.

This view from the PrintTask:

Should look something like:

My render setting is:

field: "layer"
type: "unique-value"
uniqueValueInfos: [
	{
		label: "Market 1"
		symbol: {
			height: "20px"
			type: "picture-marker"
			url: "blah.png"
			width: "20px"
		}
		value: "someValue1"
	},
	{...},
	{...}
]

Did I do something wrong setting up the render?  I also noticed that if I try to map multiple things a label shows up that appears random, without a legend marker:

Would this be the Feature Layer title, or where else would that come from / can I turn it off?  I set the title to an empty string, but it's not disabling it:

    return {
      fields: this._fields,
      source: data,
      outFields: ['*'],
      objectIdField: 'ObjectID',
      geometryType: geometryType,
      spatialReference: {
        wkid: 4326
      },
      title: ''
    };

If anyone knows about either issue, do you know how to fix it?

Thanks in advance 🙂

Hi @AndrewMurdoch1, for the first issue, make sure the pictureMarkerSymbol is accessible to the print service. We have this doc'ed under behavior notes:

https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/latest/api-reference/esri-widgets-Print.html

For the second issue, I'm not sure I follow. Is the issue that a printed legend item is missing its text? If so, make that each class breaks has a label defined, like this:

Good Day

@Noah-Sager  - Thanks for the reply, the PictureMarker is resolved!

The second issue is that Roads is showing up without a line in front of it.  The screen cap has Roads, and then under that (green line) Roads, which is correctly.  I don't know why 'Roads' with no green line shows up.  I'm assuming that's due to a title being generated for the Feature Layer, because if I generate multiple Feature Layers I can cause the same behaviour, for the Points or Polygon Layer.

In the above example I have title: '' in the FeatureLayer code, which I thought should set the title to nothing.

Hopefully that makes sense.

Cheers

Hmmm, I'm still a bit unclear, but this might be a known issue that was recently fixed. Can you test again using next?

Yes, I'll run the test in a bit.

Good Day

I ran the test again, this time setting arcgis/core to 'next' instead of 4.21.2 in package.json, I still have the same problem:

4.21.2

Next:

I also confirmed that the title on each Feature Layer is set to ''.

And do you have a label defined for each class break? I would need a simplified repro case to help diagnose further I think. Are you using a framework like React or Angular? If so, it would be good to test without the framework to help narrow down the issue.

[AndrewMurdoch1]

If you give me a few days I'll adapt my test repo to replicate the issue.  We're using Angular 12, and the test repo is also using Angular 12. 

Every class break has a label

        uniqueValueInfo.push({
          value: renderKey,
          label: renderKey,
          symbol: {
            type: renderType,
            color: mapData.attributes.colour,
            size: 12,
            width: 3,
            outline: {
              width: 4,
              color: mapData.attributes.colour,
            }
          }
        })

Render Key can never be null.  I'll see what I can get you mid next week.

Thanks for your help 🙂
