opacity
number (defaults to 1) Opacity (0, 1).
visible
boolean (defaults to true) Visibility.
extent
Extent | undefined The bounding extent for layer rendering. The layer will not be rendered outside of this extent.
zIndex
number | undefined The z-index for layer rendering. At rendering time, the layers will be ordered, first by Z-index and then by position. When
undefined
, azIndex
of 0 is assumed for layers that are added to the map'slayers
collection, orInfinity
when the layer'ssetMap()
method was used.minResolution
number | undefined The minimum resolution (inclusive) at which this layer will be visible.
maxResolution
number | undefined The maximum resolution (exclusive) below which this layer will be visible.
minZoom
number | undefined The minimum view zoom level (exclusive) above which this layer will be visible.
