GetUseSymbolLayerDrawing Method (FeatureLayer)
In This Topic
Gets whether the layer or a parent group layer is currently using Symbol
Layer Drawing or not. This method must be called on the MCT. Use QueuedTask.Run.
Syntax
Return Value
Returns a tuple(useOnLayer, useOnParent). useOnLayer will be true if the feature layer is currently using SLD.
useOnParent will be true if a parent group layer is currently using SLD (and
useOnLayer will be false).
Exceptions
Example
Enable/Disable SLD
QueuedTask.Run(() =>
{
//A layer may have SLD added but is not using it
//HasSymbolLayerDrawingAdded returns a tuple - to check
//the layer has SLD (not its parent) check addedOnLayer
if (featLayer.HasSymbolLayerDrawingAdded().addedOnLayer)
{
//the layer has SLD but is the layer currently using it?
//GetUseSymbolLayerDrawing returns a tuple - useOnLayer for
//the layer (and useOnParent for the parent layer)
if (!featLayer.GetUseSymbolLayerDrawing().useOnLayer)
{
//enable it
featLayer.SetUseSymbolLayerDrawing(true);
}
}
//Enable/Disable SLD on a layer parent
if (featLayer.HasSymbolLayerDrawingAdded().addedOnParent)
{
//check parent...this can be recursive
var parent = GetParentLayerWithSLD(featLayer.Parent as GroupLayer);
if (parent.GetUseSymbolLayerDrawing().useOnLayer)
parent.SetUseSymbolLayerDrawing(true);
}
/*
