IMSMA allows you to add up to five subcategories, called sub-themes, to a map theme. Sub-themes can be created based on any default fields or custom-defined fields (including subobject CDFs) for that theme. For example, you could modify the ''Activity'' theme to include a sub-theme for the ''Booby Trapped'' field.

Note.jpg The steps below describe what needs to be done in IMSMANG. The sub-theme needs also to be defined in the IMSMA.mxd and the map should be imported again. These steps are described in How to work with Sub-Themes in IMSMA.mxd.

IMSMA allows you to add up to five customised themes, called Sub-themes, to each of the IMSMA themes. Sub-themes can be created based on single-select IMSMANG system fields or Custom-Defined Fields for that theme.
