Hi Christian, There currently isn't a way to remove the mesh or make it transparent in a SceneView. This is something we have discussed and have plans to implement in the future. However, we don't have a timeline for this yet. All the best, Kristian ... View more

This looks like a bug. Thanks for letting us know, Abdul. ... View more

Hi Jan, Yes you can display 3D geometries in a SceneView. How are you setting up the layer? Are you using FeatureLayer? If so, you would need to set the returnZ and elevationInfo properties like this: var lyr = new FeatureLayer({   url: "http://sampleserver6.arcgisonline.com/arcgis/rest/services/VerticalLines/MapServer/0",   returnZ: true,   elevationInfo: {     mode: "absoluteHeight"   } }); ...

The plan is to allow you as a developer to configure the decimal precision as a property on this widget in the 4.0 API. ... View more

Hi Syde, Yes, the URL the href property points to must be the location of a specific format of the 3D model you want to use. Click this link for instructions on how to create a custom 3D model and publish it for use in the href property of ObjectSymbol3DLayer. We will update our documentation to point to these instructions in 4.0 beta 2.  Thanks for pointing this out. ... View more

As Jeff stated, this decision won't be made until Dojo2 is released. That being said, implementing Dojo2 in the API is being considered and discussed. ... View more

Hi Mike, These are some great questions. You are right, 4.0beta1 is very limited in functionality compared to 3.x versions of the API. 4.0 beta1 is primarily a developer preview to showcase the direction we're going in re-designing the API, which clearly affects the way it is consumed by developers and users. While these are substantial differences in many cases, the hope is that the code structure will be easier to work with and more developer friendly by the time of our final release. Now about your questions: 1. Many of the same map navigation properties exist in 4.0, but on the MapView or SceneView as you have noted. You can use MapView.zoom, .center, .scale, .extent to set the extent. As far as actual navigation methods go, you can use MapView.animateTo() to accomplish this. This sample shows an example of how animateTo() may be used to zoom to graphics, geometries, or a simple object with center and zoom properties. 2. This will be another major difference in the 4.0 API. Many of these navigation methods such as enabling/disabling map navigation will be handled with the GestureManager class. Keep in mind that this class is not complete and not yet fully functional. So keep an eye out for changes coming here that will communicate how to use GestureManager for these purposes. 3. This would also be handled in GestureManager. Hopefully, this information is helpful. Again, each of the betas will feel limited compared to the 3.x versions, but by the time we release 4.0 final next year, solutions to these questions will all be answered. Thanks for your feedback and input. ... View more
