AGSDictionaryRenderer Class Reference

Description

Renders @AGSGeoElements using symbols generated from an AGSDictionarySymbolStyle.

The DictionaryRenderer applies symbols to features or graphics according to a set of input attribute values. The symbol primitives and logic (rule engine) for applying symbols is provided by an associated AGSDictionarySymbolStyle. The AGSDictionarySymbolStyle depends on attribute names to define the symbology of each feature. The attributes reference different symbol components in the style, which are assembled to create a complex symbol. In order to display geoelements using the AGSDictionaryRenderer, attributes in your data must either use the expected attribute names or be mapped to the proper style attributes.

◆ isEqualToRenderer:

- (BOOL) isEqualToRenderer: (AGSRenderer *)  other

Compares two renderers for equality.

Parameters

YES if other is equal to self, otherwise NO.
Since
100

◆ symbolForFeature:

- (AGSSymbol*) symbolForFeature: (AGSFeature *)  feature

Creates a symbol for the feature based on the scheme used by this renderer.

Returns
A new symbol for the feature.
Since
100

◆ symbolForFeature:applyAttributeOverrides:

- (AGSSymbol*) symbolForFeature: (AGSFeature *)  feature
applyAttributeOverrides: (BOOL)  applyAttributeOverrides 

Creates a symbol for the feature based on the scheme used by this renderer and optionally apply attribute overrides.

If applyAttributeOverrides is set to YES and renderer contains an override expression, this method will return a symbol modified by the expression. If the expression cannot be properly evaluated due to missing fields or external data, then the original symbol is returned.

Parameters
featureThe feature to determine the symbol for.
applyAttributeOverridesIf set YES, applies the override attributes from the renderer.
Returns
A symbol for the feature.
Since

Since

◆ symbolForGraphic:applyAttributeOverrides:

- (AGSSymbol*) symbolForGraphic: (AGSGraphic *)  graphic
applyAttributeOverrides: (BOOL)  applyAttributeOverrides 

Creates a symbol for the graphic based on the scheme used by this renderer and optionally apply attribute overrides.

Parameters
graphicThe graphic to determine the symbol for.
applyAttributeOverridesIf set YES, applies the override attributes from the renderer.
Returns

Since
100.5

◆ toJSON:

- (nullable id) toJSON: (NSError **)  error
requiredinherited

Returns JSON representation for this object.

Parameters

Since

Property Documentation

◆ dictionarySymbolStyle

- (AGSDictionarySymbolStyle*) dictionarySymbolStyle
readwritenonatomicstrong

The dictionary symbol style to be applied by the renderer

Since
100

◆ rotationExpression

- (NSString*) rotationExpression
readwritenonatomiccopyinherited

Constant value or an expression that specifies the angle of rotation based on a feature's attribute value. When an attribute name is specified in rotationExpression, it's enclosed in square brackets, for example, [Rotation].

Since
100

◆ rotationType

- (AGSRotationType) rotationType
readwritenonatomicassigninherited

Controls the origin and direction of rotation. If the rotationType is defined as AGSRotationTypeTypeArithmetic, the symbol is rotated from East in a counter-clockwise direction where East is the 0° axis. If the rotationType is defined as AGSRotationTypeGeographic, the symbol is rotated from North in a clockwise direction where North is the 0° axis.

Since
100

◆ scaleExpression

- (AGSArcadeExpression*) scaleExpression
readwritenonatomicstrong

An AGSArcadeExpression object with an expression for scaling symbols in a dictionary renderer.

AGSArcadeExpression is evaluated at rendering time. If the expression is not valid or results in an invalid value, symbols will not be scaled and will display at their original size.

For example to scale symbols based on attribute value, AGSArcadeExpression::expression property can be set to something like iif($feature.Symbol_Set == 40, 2.5, 1). This means that a scale symbol size is 2.5 times when symbol_set is 40

Since
100.11

◆ sceneProperties

- (AGSRendererSceneProperties*) sceneProperties
readwritenonatomicstronginherited

Properties to apply only when rendering data in 3D scenes using AGSSceneView.

Since
100

◆ symbologyFieldOverrides

- (NSDictionary<NSString*, NSString*>*) symbologyFieldOverrides
readwritenonatomiccopy

The NSDictionary of a symbology attribute and its override used to fetch a symbol from the dictionary symbol style. An AGSDictionarySymbolStyle uses a collection of expected attribute names to build a symbol based on input values. When initialized, fields in the input dataset are mapped to the expected attribute names using case-insensitive matching. If your data uses a different name for an expected symbol attribute, use the AGSDictionaryRenderer::symbologyFieldOverrides to map an expected field to the correct field in your data. You can also exclude an expected field by providing an empty string for it in the overrides.

Since
100.0

◆ textFieldOverrides

- (NSDictionary<NSString*, NSString*>*) textFieldOverrides
readwritenonatomiccopy

The NSDictionary of a text attribute and its override used to fetch symbol text and placement from the dictionary symbol style. An AGSDictionarySymbolStyle uses a collection of expected attribute names to build a symbol based on input values. When initialized, fields in the input dataset are mapped to the expected attribute names using case-insensitive matching. If your data uses a different name for an expected text attribute, use the AGSDictionaryRenderer::textFieldOverrides to map an expected field to the correct field in your data. You can also exclude an expected field by providing an empty string for it in the overrides.

Since
100.0
