In arc Map I could go to Selection Options and adjust the pixel value for SELECTION TOLERANCE which made it very easy to grab something during an edit session.
Is this setting available in Pro and if so WHERE ???
See attached image of the setting from Arc Map in question
Thanks
I would love to see this setting as well! As a third-party developer, we have a custom selection tool that does a spatial query based on the clicked point. If a user's search tolerance isn't high enough, they have to be nearly pixel-perfect to select a feature, depending on their scale. The only workaround we've found is to programmatically increase the search tolerance and re-run the spatial query up to a pre-determined maximum value. For example, we may start with the default of 3, then keep increasing by 5 until we've tried 4 more queries; if nothing is found after that, we consider nothing to be selected and the user must try again.
Hi all,
I was just looking for the same thing. I am trying to select a route at a specific location so I can see what the measure value is. Drawing a box will not work because a want a point along the route. It sounds like maybe I can make my route symbology larger (wider) so I can pick a point easier. I will try that but really thought I would be able to set a selection tolerance. I am using ArcGIS Pro 2.8 in windows.
Thanks, Rick. Does dragging a selection box around the point not work for you (rather than trying to click on the point)?
As for editing in Pro vs Map just being able to grab vertices in line and polygon vector data when doing edits makes it way faster than having to expressly get on the vertices to move them - hence my question about the selection pixel tolerance - I am not snapping the vertices to anything just lining them up on the roads in the streets background map - when I can set the selection tolerance to 10 pixels it makes the edits go very quickly. Current project is fixing some road center line overlays for some data that was made back in 2012 for our catastrophic planning section folks - editing at 1:1000 scale - only reason I am using Pro is the speed at which I can scroll around on the map - 50 overlays with 4 - 8 lines per overlay that span quite a large area - scrolling around in the map using Arc Map is very slow.
Rick, no, it doesn't look like there is a selection tolerance setting. I'm assuming you're finding it difficult to edit in Pro right now because of this? Do you have any examples (screenshots) of the type of data where you're able to work more efficiently in ArcMap with control over selection tolerance than when working in Pro?
Thank you!
guess not
So in short there is no setting in Arc Pro that I inquired about.
Thanks for the info and confirmation on an item I was unable to find in Pro.
Michael, there isn't a setting that I'm aware of to control the "pop-up tolerance." Note that the Explore tool acts on a feature's symbol rather than the xy location. So the ability to "hit" a 20 pt point symbol is easier than a 4 pt points symbol.
Is there an equivalent setting then?
Nope that is the SNAP TO not the " grab something pixel tolerance"
No that adjusts the SNAP TO not the setting I referred to
I don't see that one any more thankfully. There was nothing more problematic when someone had the pixel tolerance set to 3 pixels and kept zooming in and missing the point within the tolerance. Distance based seems to be the unspoken default, but
Kory Kramer would be the person with the know... Kory, any clue if it still exists?
Is this the setting in Pro that determines if you've clicked close enough to a feature for the pop-up information to appear for that feature? This would mostly apply to points. I don't see this information shown in the link that you have provided.
The snap link is...
Turn snapping on or off—ArcGIS Pro | ArcGIS Desktop
which explains the options and shows the snapping setting image in Mervyn's post
Is this the tolerance that would be used when clicking on a feature such as a point so the pop-up information for that feature appears? If not, where would that setting be found in Pro?
The only place I have encountered the setting of pixel tolerance is with snapping settings (Edit tab > Snapping group > Snapping Settings). This kind-of functions the same as grabbing (snapping to) features during an edit session. Is this what you were looking for?
