Using a sql sde database when I upgraded the Annotation many of them are ghosted. They are still in the attribute table, but they do not show in the map and are not selectable. I can double click on them in the attribute table and they will zoom to where they are suppose appear but they are not there. It does seem to work if I export them to a file geodatabase. .
So much for switching to Pro.
I do have a case opened. Wanted to see if anyone here have any ideas or have come across this?
ArcMap 10.5.1
Pro 2.4.2
sql server 2016
Workflow:
Reconcile Post Compress
Disconnect Users
Make sure they have a default Annotation Class
Unregister As Versioned
Update Annotation Feature Class
Upgrade Geodatabase
Upgrade Dataset
Solved! Go to Solution.
It's a bug. From this and other things I read apparently Pro has a hard time with SQL Server annotation.
