This sample demonstrates how to place arrows along a line using CIMSymbols to visualize the direction of one-way streets in Redlands. CIMSymbols are used to display multi-layer vector symbols, and can allow for custom symbols and visualizations in your layer. See the CIM specification for more information.

How it works

A UniqueValueRenderer is used to create the visualization for this layer. If the street is a one-way street, a CIMSymbol of a black line with arrows is created to visualize the movement of traffic on that street. If the street is not one-way, a default SimpleLineSymbol is used.

renderer: {
  type: "unique-value", // autocasts as UniqueValueRenderer
  field: "oneway",
  defaultSymbol: {
    type: "simple-line" // default SimpleLineSymbol
  },
  uniqueValueInfos: [{
    value: "yes", // when one-way='yes', create CIMSymbol line with arrows
    symbol: {
      type: "cim", // autocasts as CIMSymbol
      data: {
        type: "CIMSymbolReference",
        symbol: {
          type: "CIMLineSymbol",
          symbolLayers: [{
            // black 1px line symbol
            type: "CIMSolidStroke",
            enable: true,
            width: 1,
            color: [0, 0, 0, 255]
          },
          {
            // arrow symbol
            type: "CIMVectorMarker",
            enable: true,
            size: 5,
            markerPlacement: {
              type: "CIMMarkerPlacementAlongLineSameSize", // places same size markers along the line
              endings: "WithMarkers",
              placementTemplate: [19.5] // determines space between each arrow
            },
            frame: {
              xmin: -5,
              ymin: -5,
              xmax: 5,
              ymax: 5
            },
            markerGraphics: [{
              type: "CIMMarkerGraphic",
              geometry: {
                rings: [
                  [
                    [-8, -5.47],
                    [-8, 5.6],
                    [1.96, -0.03],
                    [-8, -5.47]
                  ]
                ]
              },
              symbol: {
                // black fill for the arrow symbol
                type: "CIMPolygonSymbol",
                symbolLayers: [{
                  type: "CIMSolidFill",

              }
