New functionality in the Dynamic Value table allows users to specify whether to execute the methods when a feature's attribute is changed (ON_CHANGE) or when a feature's geometry is changed (ON_CHANGEGEO). Changes to the Dynamic Value table schema to support the ON_CHANGE and ON_CHANGEGEO functionality. New Value Methods (UPDATE_LINKED_RECORD and PREVIOUS_VALUE). New functionality in the GenerateID table allows users to specify an increment value for each unique identifier.
