Add a tool (w/ gui preferably) to get the attribute values for a set of selected features and use them in an interactive definition query dialog box which would allow the user to select which attributes to use for the querry and how to use them.  If this is set up in gui it could also be used to visually analyse for trends within the selected data.

Hello all,

It is implemented in ArcGIS Pro 3.4 release. Thank you everyone for you feedback, suggestion and even sample codes. Those were immensely helpful.

This capability is available as the new Generate Definition Query From Selection geoprocessing tool, and (as some suggested here) that is accessible directly from a layer's context menu off the Contents pane.

@TanuHoque The docs describe a "Where Clause (Optional)" parameter.

I don't see that parameter in the GP tool.

Under what circumstances would we see that parameter in the tool?
