Property Overview

Property Details

color Color

The dominant color used to shade the water. The water has different shades of the dominant color based on the reflection of the light. The image below shows how different types of water can be represented with different colors. For example for deep water the dominant color could be navy blue.

The color can be autocast with an array of rgb(a) values, named string, hex string or an hsl(a) string, an object with r, g, b, and a properties, or a Color object.

Default Value:#0077BE

Example:

// a new color by a HEX string
symbolLayer.color = "#005B66";

declaredClass Stringreadonly inherited

The name of the class. The declared class name is formatted as esri.folder.className.

type Stringreadonly

The symbol type.

For WaterSymbol3DLayer the type is always "water".

waterbodySize String

Indicates the size of the waterbody which is represented by the symbol layer. small can be set for small lakes, rivers or swimming pools, medium can be set for large lakes, whereas large is recommended for ocean and sea waterbodies.

Possible Values:"small"|"medium"|"large"

Default Value:medium

Example:

// sets the waterBodySize for an ocean like waterbody.
symbolLayer.waterbodySize = "large";

waveDirection Number

Indicates the direction in which the waves travel. This value represents the geographic rotation in degrees and it ranges from 0 to 360 degrees. A value of 0 degrees corresponds to geographic north, which means that the wave travels from south to north.

The default is set to null, which will display the waves without a distinct direction.

Default Value:null

Example:

// sets the wave direction to 215 degrees
symbolLayer.waveDirection = 215;

waveStrength String

Indicates the shape and intensity of the waves. Currently only calm to moderate waterbodies can be represented. A calm wave strength represents water without waves, acting almost like a mirror. A water with rippled wave strength has very small and short waves. slight wave strength displays the waves with a more pronounced form, but they are still quite short. Choosing moderate will display waves with a longer form and a slightly increased intensity.

Possible Values:"calm"|"rippled"|"slight"|"moderate"

Default Value:moderate

Example:

// sets the wave strength to small waves
symbolLayer.waveStrength = "slight";

Method Overview

Method Details

clone(){WaterSymbol3DLayer}

Creates a deep clone of the symbol layer.

Returns:

Type	Description
WaterSymbol3DLayer	A deep clone of the object that invoked this method.

Example:

// Creates a deep clone of the graphic's first symbol layer
var symLyr = graphic.symbol.symbolLayers.getItemAt(0).clone();

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}inherited

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.
