Additional Information

We apologize that we were unable to address this issue within the current product support cycle.  If the issue continues to affect your work in a supported release, please contact Technical Support.

Workaround

Create a layer of the feature service, then take the feature offline for editing. The layer maintains the sybmology and allow for users to work as expected. However, as new edits are made, the symbology is not readily apparent until synced to a feature service.
