Configuring dynamic custom queries on schematic feature classes

When a schematic feature class is configured with a query, this query is by default only executed when the diagram is generated/updated. But if needed, you can configure the evaluation mode of the query so it is reevaluated each time diagrams containing the associated schematic features are loaded in memory.

Caution:

If you configure dynamic custom queries on schematic feature classes and rules are configured to be executed during the diagram generation and update processes, the schematic features built from these queries will not be in memory at the time the rules are executed. Rules operate on schematic features built from custom queries only when their query evaluation mode is Query on Generate/Update; queries whose evaluation mode is Query on Start Editing are executed after rule execution during the diagram generation and update processes.

Steps:

1. Click the desired schematic feature class in the Dataset Editor tree.
2. Click the Properties tab.
3. Click the Evaluation Mode arrow in the Query section.
4. Choose Query on Start Editing.
5. Click Save on the Dataset Editor toolbar.
