Problem with Leaflet >= 1.8

[SamG92]

Hi there,

I'm using VectorGrid and trying to catch the click event on one of my feature/vectorgrid using following code:

vectorGrid.on('click', function(e) { L.popup() .setContent("test") .setLatLng(e.latlng) .openOn(map); }

It works perfectly fine with Leaflet 1.7.1 but crashes with Leaflet 1.8+. I get the following error when the click happens:

Uncaught TypeError: L.DomEvent.fakeStop is not a function at NewClass._onClick (Leaflet.VectorGrid.bundled.min.js:2:15768) at HTMLCanvasElement.handler (DomEvent.js:108:13) Leaflet.VectorGrid.bundled.min.js:2

Strangely, the "mouseover" event is working fine.

Any idea on how to get it working?

Thanks a lot Sam

TL;DR: I solved this by changing to svg renderer instead of canvas renderer with rendererFactory option.

Issue is due to a change in Leaflet 1.8 due to this issue, https://github.com/Leaflet/Leaflet/issues/7431 Leaflet.Vectorgrid extends the Canvas renderer and its _onClick function and thus it has old Canvas code with fakeStop. But SVG renderer does not extend _onClick, instead it uses Leaflet native _onClick.

I think that this kind of issues is why the author of Leaflet.VectorTileLayer opted for another design. As he writes: "In contrast to VectorGrid, this class has been designed as much as possible in terms of Leaflet's public API."

I was able to solve this by including the following code before any use of L.VectorGrid code. This overwrites the place in the codebase where .fakeStop is used, and passes the event on to fire correctly without error

L.Canvas.Tile.include({
    _onClick: function (e) {
        var point = this._map.mouseEventToLayerPoint(e).subtract(this.getOffset());
        var layer: L.Layer;
        var clickedLayer: L.Layer;

        for (var id in this._layers) {
            layer = this._layers[id];
            if (
                layer.options.interactive &&
                layer._containsPoint(point) &&
                !this._map._draggableMoved(layer)
            ) {
                clickedLayer = layer;
            }
        }
        if (clickedLayer) {
                         // offending code used to be right here
            clickedLayer.fireEvent(e.type, undefined, true);
        }
    },
});
