Billboard not showing when moved

1. A concise explanation of the problem you’re experiencing.

When i’m moving a billboard using billboard.position, it disappears from the screen but is still being moved

2. A minimal code example. If you’ve found a bug, this helps us reproduce and repair it.

function update(value) {

billboard.position = new Cesium.Cartesian3(value.x, value.y, 10);

viewer.camera.setView({

destination: Cesium.Cartesian3.fromDegrees(value.x, value.y, 250000.0)

})

}

``

3. Context. Why do you need to do this? We might know a better way to accomplish your goal.

We’re trying to move a billboard looking like a certain object using an image to show it moving across the map.

4. The Cesium version you’re using, your operating system and browser.

Cesium v1.53.0 - Windows 10 64 Bit - Chrome

How often does the update function there run? Does it disappear forever or is it a sort of flickering?

I’m not sure exactly what the issue is, but I do know that Cesium assumes most properties to be static for performance reasons. You can use a callback property if your entity is dynamic like in this example:

This can be used for position but also for any other property. Let me know if that works.

The update is ran every second as it is running a tween between two small points to get it to go across a strange path

When we have a problem, this is the code that is causing it:

function run(i) {

// animate

var tween = tween || scene.tweens.add({

update: update,

startObject: {

x: list[i],

y: list[i + 1]

},

stopObject: {

x: list[i + 3],

y: list[i + 4]

},

duration: 1.0,

easingFunction: Cesium.EasingFunction.LINEAR_NONE

});

tween = undefined;

current += 3;

if(current >= list.length) {

clearInterval(interval);

}

}

``

I would try changing the position to use a CallbackProperty as shown in that example I linked, and see if that fixes the issue.
