Please enhance the options to handle requests for which over 1000 features are returned.  The users don't read it, don't understand it, and call us every single time they see it. I recognize Esri's need to constrain the features, but hope for a day when I can either turn this warning off, or denote the issue less obtrusively.  Something that doesn't require the user to click anything to keep going.  Maybe an initial message of "at this scale, there are too many features to draw.  When this occurs, you will see a small red flag next to the layer(s) which are not fully drawn.  Zoom in to see more features."  And they click to acknowledge, and then for the rest of the session, there is only the little red flag.  Thanks! ...

The Add All Values overwrites existing symbology defintions.  Using the Add Values button does not overwrite existing symbology, but it also doesn't show the human readable text description of a coded value, so in some situations, you're just stuck.  Please consider adjusting the Add All Values function so it does not overwrite existing values.  Thank you! ...

There are too many instances in which your established symbology is overruled by a minor revision. This has been documented elswhere as it occurs inside the label manager. Here, I would like to address the layer properties' Symbology tab.  If you have multiple lines symbolizing various categories of your feature and then decide you want each of them to have an additional underlying white line, or all to be a bit larger, or all... anything, then you can right-click, and choose "Properties for all symbols." However, any action you take from that point (other than changing line weight) will result in you losing your previously determined colors.  So in order to perform such revisions, you'll have to go through each and every one of them individually. ...

This functionality is already available with domains, but not with subtypes.  It's difficult to write a proper query when the information button provides textual description only while the def query presents coded value only.  ... View more
