Layer uses an unsupported renderer

[AndrewHargreaves]

Hi,
I am trying to publish an MXD that displays meters using 2 attributes: [Connection Size] and [Status].
This allows me to display all meters like below:
Blue dot: Size=1 Status=Yes
Blue X: Size=1 Status=No
Red dot: Size=2 Status=Yes
Red X: Size=2 Status=No
Green dot: Size=3 Status=Yes
Green X: Size=3 Status=No

However I am receiving error 00085: Layer uses an unsupported renderer due to the fact my one layer is symbolized using 'Unique Values & Many Fields'. Basically, if I want to show points by 2 attributes i see only three options:
1. Symbolize by 'Unique Values & Many Fields' - result: can't publish MXD
2. Have 2 layers, with definition queries limiting display of info to either Status=Yes or Status=No - result: secure map services with a definition query can't be queried. Big problem for me.
3. Have 2 layers, no definition queries, top symbol obscuring the one below - result: 2 recorded points at that location

If anyone has other thoughts, please let me know.

do you happen to have Feature Access capability turned on?
here is the help on the error message: http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.1/index.html#//00sq0000009v000000

Is this still an issue in Arc Desktop 10.3?

I wish to know if they have any plan to implement this functionality. This is a must for any field data capture projects. We should be able to color code or symbolize features according to the combination of device type and the status.
