ArcGIS Pro - How to create a polygon shapefile?

CarlosPR21

I am trying to create a polygon shapefile in ArcGIS Pro and encountering some difficulties. I <click> the Edit tab, set snapping to on, <click> Create, <select> Polygon and selected vertices then I proceeded to create my polygon and when finish double click and the polygon that I created disappeared. I know I am missing several steps and hope that someone can point me in the right direction.

Thanks

I am working with the trial version of ArcGIS Pro, and am having trouble editing any kind of shapefile. I have many such files from other projects, and could add them to my map just fine. I added a new one with Create Feature Class, but I do not see any menu items that allow me to edit existing shapefiles, or draw new points, polyline, or polygons in a new shapefile. I looked through Tools, the Edit and Map menus, and I don't see what I should be seeing based on ESRI help and a few other related websites. It seems like the edit shapefile functionality is missing. I have installed the latest upgrade, but that did not help.

I Pro all layers are editable... except for basemaps as is the case of the only layer in the OP's image. You don't need to start an edit session as in ArcMap
