Hi everyone,
I've got a co-worker who's having an unusual problem I've never encountered before and can't seem to replicate, but I don't use the graphics layer very often, so I'm not familiar enough to really understand the issue. I'll try to explain it as briefly as I can.
First, he's working in an existing project with multiple types of features classes. He wants to make a very simple addition to the map without creating a new feature class, so he's using graphics to draw polygons (to show a wetland, for example).
He'll draw his first polygon in the graphics layer without any problems.
He then draws a second polygon next to the original polygon - let's say he's drawing the other side of the wetland, which is separated by a bike path - but when he finishes drawing the second polygon, which follows the general shape of the first polygon but is 20-30 feet away from it, the first polygon will rotate inexplicably.
It doesn't look like it stretches or like the individual vertices move on their own. It seems like the first polygon simply rotates about 30-45 degrees or so. The same thing apparently happens when he changes the "fill pattern" of the polygon graphic (sorry, I'm not sure if that's the right term when it comes to graphics). For example, he'll use the "swamp" fill pattern because it looks like a wetland, and as soon as that change is made, the polygon will rotate, too. It seems like any change made after he draws the first polygon will make the polygon rotate.
I don't have access to his project and can't check the settings for his map or his copy of ArcGIS Pro, but if you have any suggestions to try, I'll pass them along. I may also be able to get more information on the problem, but I won't be able to get that info until tomorrow. Thanks.
