Map Class

Map class represents the ESRI map object. The map is generated based on the application configuration and templates.

GlobalStorage RAMP FeatureClickHandler MapClickHandler Navigation EventManager Util Array

Methods

_hideLoadingImg

() private

Hides the loading image.

_initEventHandlers

Creates event handlers for the map control: click, mouse-over, load, extent change, and update events.

Parameters:

)
private

Subscribe to external events (published using topic.publish) and react accordingly

Parameters:

_initRepublishers

(
  • map
)
private

Republishes map events to the outside using topic.publish

Parameters:

_showLoadingImg

() private

Shows the loading image.

    A value between 0.0 and 1.0 which determines the transparency of the layer

applyExtentDefaulting

Returns a list of feature layers that are currently visible on the map.

Returns:

Array:

an array of Esri/layers/FeatureLayer objects

layerInLODRange

(
  • maxScale
  • minScale
)

For a specified layer, determine if the layer's scale fit into map LOD range. Return ture if in range

  • maxScale Number

    maximum scale.

  • minScale Number

    minimum scale

localProjectExtent

(
  • extent
  • sr
)

Will project an extent to a desired spatial reference, using client side projection library. Avoids the need for Esri Geometry Service

Parameters:

Returns:

Esri/Extent:

extent in the desired projection

localProjectExtent

(
  • extent
  • sr
)
Esri/Extent

Will project an extent to a desired spatial reference, using client side projection library. Avoids the need for Esri Geometry Service
