Subroutines

A Subroutine is a collection of features which have been selected from a source Routine and saved to the database. When activated, a subroutine becomes a query's DataSource. A subroutine can contain features from more than one source routine.

Once a Subroutine has been created and saved to the Database, it can have its own properties the same as a standard Routine (assign Routine Filters, Routine Images, etc.).

Subroutines can be created or edited from either the Query Properties dialog or the Feature Editor dialog.

Create/Edit Subroutines

In the Subroutines dialog, you can create or edit Subroutines that are loaded by the Query.

Select a Subroutine from the dropdown list to assign it as the Subroutine that will be stacked with the Subroutine you are editing.
