Image of display layer view state

Use case

The view state includes information on the loading state of layers and whether layers are visible at a given scale. For example, you might change how a layer is displayed in a layer list to communicate whether it is being viewed in the map.

How to use the sample

Pan and zoom around in the map. Each layer's view status is displayed. Notice that some layers configured with a min and max scale change to "OutOfScale" at certain scales.

How it works

Create an Map with some operational layers.
Set the map on a MapView.
Add an event handler for the LayerViewStateChanged event in the map view.

About the data

The map shows a tiled layer of world time zones, a map image layer of the census, and a feature layer of recreation services.
