properties.
Parameters:

<String[] > basemaps |
Required |
Basemaps that this theme has schemes for. Example: ["streets","gray","topo","terrain","national-geographic","oceans","osm","satellite","hybrid","dark-gray"]. |
<String > description |
Required |
Theme description. Example: "Default theme for basic visualization of features." |
<String > label |

zoom: 12
});
map.on("load", function(){
themes = esriStylesChoropleth.getAvailableThemes(map.getBasemap());
console.log(JSON.stringify(themes[0]["basemaps"]));

<String > geometryType |
Required |
Geometry type of features in your dataset. Supported types: point , line , polygon . |

<Object > primaryScheme |
Required |
Primary scheme is an object with properties based on the feature geometry type.
- For points:
colors , colorsForClassBreaks , noDataColor , size , outline
outline has color and width
- For lines:
colors , colorsForClassBreaks , noDataColor , width
- For polygons:
colors , colorsForClassBreaks , noDataColor , outline
outline has color and width
colors: These are colors suitable for unclassed choropleth mapping.
colorsForClassBreaks: These are colors suitable for classed choropleth mapping, categorized based on the number of classes.
It is an array of objects with the following properties:
Property | Type | Description |
