Layers with active definition queries should have symbol, icon or text next to the display name so you know they are active e.g Layer Name is " Sample Form" => "Sample Name" (DQ).
Why would this be helpful? Definition queries are a very useful tool to manage what is being displayed. However, its easy to forget or not realise (if the data is shared) that a definition query is active.
I think that I have seen this idea suggested before. I believe that the current option is to use the Filter in the Contents pane and select Active definition query to list only those layers with an active definition query.
I would appreciate it if, whenever a definition query is applied to a layer, it were indicated by an icon next to the layer name.
I think this is a great idea considering that ESRI has added spatial definition queries at ArcGIS Pro 3.5.
Possibly show different icons depending upon if just an attribute def query is applied vs just a spatial def query is applied vs both an attribute def query and a spatial def query are applied.
