BUG

In ArcMap, when a version is changed, the edited feature-linked annotation is moved out of the feature dataset and has a red exclamation mark

Last Published: April 25, 2020

Description

In ArcMap, when a version is changed, the edited feature-linked annotation is moved out of the feature dataset and has a red exclamation mark beside the icon.

The sde error log records the following error:

"The featureclasses default subtype code cannot be retrieved or is invalid".

Cause

If a schema change is made to a feature-linked annotation that has an annotation classid and a default subtype, the annotation is removed from the feature dataset and has a red exclamation mark beside the icon in ArcMap when the version is changed.

Workaround

Change the default subtype from a value to NULL. If an annotation feature class has one annotation class, it should not have a subtype.
