If anyone is looking to create a multi-field UniqueValueRenderer via rendererJsonUtils.fromJSON or UniqueValueRenderer.fromJSON, the still undocumented JSON structure for specifying it with uniqueValueGroups has the corresponding structure below: { "type": "uniqueValue", "field1": "test1", "field2": "test2", "uniqueValueGroups": [{ "heading": "Heading 1", "classes": [{ "label": "Label 1", "symbol": { "type": "esriSMS", "style": "esriSMSCircle", "color": [88,255,96,255], "outline": { "color": [140,255,120,128], "width": 6 } }, "values": [ ["testValue","testValue2"], ["testValue1","testValue2"] ] }, { "label": "Label 2", "symbol": { "type": "esriSMS", "style": "esriSMSCircle", "color": [88,255,96,255], "outline": { "color": [140,255,120,128], "width": 6 } }, "values": [ ["testValue3","testValue4"] ] }] }] }   Note that the "values" property must be specified as an Array of arrays. ...

Aside from a couple exceptions, the order in which layers are drawn is the same as the order in which layers are found in the Map.allLayers property.  Changing the order of layers is made possible through the Map.reorder method, As for the exceptions, see the notes in the documentation for the allLayers property and the reorder method, both of which are hyperlinked above. ...

This looks like a scope issue.  In your anonymous function called by setInterval, "this" will refer to the window, not the instance of the widget.  You should be able to get around this using bind: window.setInterval(function() { this.processing = !this.processing; }.bind(this), 5000);   ...

That's a different problem in a different module, which I also fix in the local copy.  My notes on it (specific to 4.27) are below:   esri/views/draw/DrawGraphicTool.js   Prevent empty polygon from following mouse cursor around when starting a sketch using the regular or freehand polygon drawing tools. Note that this issue doesn't apply to rectangles or circles. This behavior evidently started in 4.25.     Search for:   h._createOrUpdateGraphic=function(a){     Replace with:   h._createOrUpdateGraphic=function(a){if((a)&&(a.type=="polygon")&&((a.rings.length===0)||(a.rings[0].length<3)))return;     ...

I have a fix for that, but it involves modifying a file on a locally hosted copy of the SDK.  That is, I download and host a copy of the SDK on our own servers rather than using ESRI's server at runtime.  Here are my notes, which are specific to 4.27 (although may work in previous version as well): esri/views/2d/interactive/editingTools/draw/DrawGraphicTool2D.js   Prevent vertex symbol from appearing with mouse cursor when using a freehand drawing tool. Note: this behavior started in 4.21.     Search for:   this.internalGraphicsLayer.add(this._visualElementGraphics.activeVertex);     Replace with:   if(this.get("drawOperation.drawingMode.updating"))this.internalGraphicsLayer.add(this._visualElementGraphics.activeVertex);       ...

SketchViewModel extends Accessor, and therefore has the "set" method.  More info here and here. ... View more

I think the problem here is that three different things are being considered as if they were the same, or at least closely related...however, they are quite distinct. 1) The visible property for a field on the Update Definition operation determines whether or not the field (and its data) is exposed to the service.  If the value is set to false, then information for that field will not be returned in a request for service information, nor will it be included in a query response.  To the end user, it will be as if the field doesn't exist at all. 2) The Field object within the SDK does not have a visible property, because it would have no meaning.  As far as a layer at runtime within the SDK is concerned, either a field exists or it doesn't.  It if exists, the information about it will be in the response sent by the server when the object requests information about the layer (e.g. as seen in the image you posted).  Otherwise, no information is provided to the client about fields that, in essence, don't exist. 3) Whether or not a field and its information is visible in the Popup when you click on a feature is determined by how the layer's PopupTemplate is setup.  Setting up a PopupTemplate is a very broad topic, but it gives you full control over what is displayed and what isn't.  For example, the fieldInfos property allows you to specify information about the fields via FieldInfo objects.  These FieldInfo objects have a visible property that would allow you to control whether the field is displayed or not. ...

Unfortunately the ScaleDependentRenderer was not migrated from 3x to 4x.  In addition, unlike in 3.x, you cannot create custom renderer modules in 4.x applications.  Therefore, you'll have to approach this differently in 4.x. Basically, a ScaleDependentRenderer was a collection of other renderers, one of which would become active at a given scale range.  Therefore, in a 4.x application, you'll need to (1) create that collection of other renderers manually, (2) watch the scale of the view, and when it changes, (3) determine which renderer from the collection your layer should be using. There's also more information in this thread. ... View more

If you're wanting to get the map coordinates of the bottom-right point, it would be better to calculate from the pre-existing "screenPoint" variable instead: var bottomrightX = screenPoint.x + 200 //200 is the width of the box pre css var bottomrightY = screenPoint.y + 300 //300 is the height of the box per   For consistency, you also might want to use the same coordinate system in your call to console.log: console.log("POINT = " + ptUpdate.longitude + "," + ptUpdate.latitude); ...

Yes, but what I'm saying is that you should also include Sketch and SketchViewModel in the call to require in function A, even if you don't use them in function A.  That way, Sketch and SketchViewModel will already be available on the client by the time function B is called.  Otherwise function B executes, and then it has to wait until those modules download before the "real" execution takes place. ...

This appears to work: var screenPoint = view.toScreen(point); var rect = view.container.getBoundingClientRect(); var left = screenPoint.x + rect.left + window.scrollX; var top = screenPoint.y + rect.top + window.scrollY; var box = document.getElementById("box"); box.style.position = "absolute"; box.style.left = left.toString() + "px"; box.style.top = top.toString() + "px"; ...
