Description

Hello,

I'm experimenting with the new standard layer beta and I really like it. Except I've added a raster layer to my map and it is being affected by the lighting effect.

In all of these images, my raster layer is generating YELLOW dots (`FFFF00`), however using the new standard style they show up on the map in colors ranging from ALMOST WHITE to ALMOST BLACK.

How can I make them show up the unaltered YELLOW from the raw raster image no matter the lighting conditions?

My use case: I want to use the lighting conditions to control the theme of the basemap (e.g. easily switch from light/dark), but I want to control the colors of the data I add to the map. Does not seem possible with the dusk or night presets. Is there something I can override for my raster layer?

Research direction

Reproduce the raster layer with the standard style and compare the day, dusk, night, and dawn lightPreset values against the dark-v11 style and raw raster tile shown in the issue. Trace the documented raster-layer and lighting configuration to determine whether an override exists; done means establishing a supported way to preserve the raster colors or documenting that it is unavailable.
