topic Maintain multiple annotation subtypes for feature classes with definition queries in Geodatabase Questions https://community.esri.com/t5/geodatabase-questions/maintain-multiple-annotation-subtypes-for-feature/m-p/863270#M5883 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hello World,&nbsp;</P><P></P><P>I have an annotation feature class with two annotation subtypes that represent two separate feature classes (all residing in an SDE environment). The&nbsp;labels represent buildings names and numbers.&nbsp;</P><P></P><P>What I would like to do is set a definition query on my feature class and then only display the associated annotation for those features using one primary field. If I conduct a join from the feature class to the annotation class I can only maintain a join on one of those subtypes and the other subtypes disappear. The purpose is to display ALL the subtypes and maintain all the label components with a single join.
