Troubleshooting

deck.gl shader hooks are not resolved

Issue

deck.gl must be used from a single bundle, otherwise it fails to resolve its shader hooks DECKGL_FILTER_SIZE, DECKGL_FILTER_GL_POSITION, DECKGL_FILTER_COLOR.

The shader source code calls these hooks but it's missing their declaration.

Symptoms

No layer displays. "Vertex shader is not compiled" error is logged in the browser console.

Solution

Check for duplicate deck.gl bundles used (versions or ESM vs CJS). Ensure that a single deck.gl bundle is used.

Layers can't be enabled after disabling in MapLibre/Mapbox interleaved mode

Issue

Layers can't be reused, they need to be recreated.

Symptoms

After deck.MapboxOverlay is added to the map with maplibregl.Map.addControl and removed from the map with maplibregl.Map.removeControl, adding it back again with maplibregl.Map.addControl doesn't render any layers.

Solution

After removing deck.MapboxOverlay from the map with maplibregl.Map.removeControl, remove layers as well with deck.MapboxOverlay.setProps({ layers: [] }).

After adding deck.MapboxOverlay to the map with maplibregl.Map.addControl, add layers with deck.MapboxOverlay.setProps({ layers: [...all layers...] }).

HighLowLayer doesn't display in MapLibre/Mapbox interleaved mode

Issue

HighLowLayer uses deck.gl CollisionFilterExtension, which has a known unresolved bug that it can't be used after bitmap layers (RasterLayer, ContourLayer). https://github.com/visgl/deck.gl/issues/7864

Symptoms

HighLowLayer doesn't display.

Solution

Move HighLowLayer to be before bitmap layers (RasterLayer, ContourLayer), and offset it with getPolygonOffset: () => [0, -1000].
