Property Overview

Property Details

description String

Description of the filter for display in UIs, for example when the filter is edited in ArcGIS Pro.

filterBlocks Collection<BuildingFilterBlock>

Filter blocks define which features should be visible in the affected BuildingSceneLayer and how the filtered features are drawn. A filter should contain at least one filter block.

The order of filter blocks influences the order in which the filter blocks are applied. For example, if a filter block using a wire-frame mode precedes a solid filter block in the collection, elements that match either filter block will be drawn as wireframe.

Known Limitations

Filter blocks with a wire-frame filter mode are currently not rendered.

id Stringreadonly

Unique filter id. Assign this id to BuildingSceneLayer.activeFilterId to activate the filter.

name String

Name of the filter for display in UIs, for example when the filter is edited in ArcGIS Pro.

Method Overview

Method Details

fromJSON(json){*}static

Creates a new instance of this class and initializes it with values from a JSON object generated from a product in the ArcGIS platform. The object passed into the input json parameter often comes from a response to a query operation in the REST API or a toJSON() method from another ArcGIS product. See the Using fromJSON() topic in the Guide for details and examples of when and how to use this function.

Parameter:

json Object A JSON representation of the instance in the ArcGIS format. See the ArcGIS REST API documentation for examples of the structure of various input JSON objects.

Returns:

Type	Description
*	Returns a new instance of this class.

toJSON(){Object}

Converts an instance of this class to its ArcGIS portal JSON representation. See the Using fromJSON() topic in the Guide for more information.

Returns:

Type	Description
Object	The ArcGIS portal JSON representation of an instance of this class.

Type Definitions

BuildingFilterBlock Object

Object contained in the filterBlocks collection:

Properties:

filterExpression String The SQL where clause used to match features to this filter block. Only the features that satisfy the filter expression are displayed in the SceneView. This property is evaluated on the client using the cached attributes and it only supports standardized SQL.

filterMode Object optional This object contains information about the filter mode of the filter block. This property can generally be omitted, since only solid filter blocks are rendered in the JS API. Specification: type String optional Default Value:solid Defines how features are drawn while the filter is active. The same filter mode type can only be used once in a filter. To filter multiple elements as solid, add them to a single filter block instead of creating several filter blocks that use the solid filter mode. Possible Values:"solid"|"wire-frame"

title String optional Title of the filter for display in UIs, for example when the filter block is edited in ArcGIS Pro.
