Tracy, As previously mentioned in my post, the appropriateness of the M3 Mac depends on your specific requirements. If you already possess an M3 Mac, I recommend testing the complimentary version of Parallels software to ascertain whether its performance meets your needs. Good luck.

For some clients, we have moved the SystemStartDate and SystemEndDate to the records feature class to reflect the documents' dates that caused the change. While it might not be 100% accurate, especially if plans were not used in the ArcMap Parcel Fabric, you can use an arcade expression to traverse through the record to parcel relationship class and populate the fields in the record feature class. Good Luck, Frank Conkling - Panda Consulting

Amir, Yes, I mentioned that the change was implemented so that the workflow is to click on the New button and use that to change the line template instead of using the older dropdown, and no change is needed to perform the function. Frank

Amir, You are correct; the issue appears to be related to the inherent rounding error in the chord and arc lengths provided (rounding to the closest one hundredth). Considering how the trigonometric functions work, the delta or central angle offers better results on "shorter" curves, meaning less than 1,000 feet radius. Frank Conkling - Panda Consulting

I suggest checking to see if Editor Tracking has been enabled. With the release of ArcGIS Pro 3.2, the software began tracking whether Editor Tracking is enabled. With certain operations, it will return this error if it is not enabled. Good luck, Frank Conkling - Panda Consulting.

Sarah, I requested that the discussion be offline to avoid partisan discussions on Windows versus Mac. Social media, even a software-specific discussion forum like this, lends itself to short declarations of "I'm right, and you're wrong." which stops all meaningful discussions. Regarding whether you can efficiently run ArcGIS Pro on a Mac, we have run our entire company on Macs for over 15 years. The decision to run ArcGIS Pro on a Mac depends upon what specific tasks you seek to run. Our company has several systems that match the configuration you provided and work flawlessly. Simple data editing and map production can be run on a minimally equipped Mac with Apple silicone hardware. If you wish to do more intensive analysis or machine learning in ArcGIS Pro, you might be better off with a PC workstation. Efficient virtualization software is essential to the success of using ArcGIS Pro on a Mac. We use Parallels Desktop for Mac, preferring the Pro version for more intensive projects, and we run Windows 11 for ARM. We have found that the memory requirements for the virtual machine challenge the typical thinking that more memory is better. For example, my standard VM for simple work in ArcGIS Pro only has 4 CPUs and 8 GB of memory but handles most jobs easily. We even perform simplified 3D visualization with this virtual machine. There are some limitations to this configuration. For one, There is a "bug" in the installation configuration for Microsoft SQL Server, which will not successfully install on this configuration. This issue with SQL Server is well documented on the Parallels forums, and a few workarounds are suggested, but we have never found any of them acceptable. In addition, VPN software vendors have not fully embraced Windows for ARM and currently do not write VPN software to run on Windows for ARM. Microsoft has its own VPN within Windows for ARM, but many wish to use a third party instead. As you can see from the discussion above, it is not a simple "this" or "that"; a much deeper conversation must be undertaken before you can make a decision that is right for you. I hope this helps.

It sounds like you are receiving that error because of geometry issues with the features in the Parcel Fabric. This often happens when one stores the data in a file geodatabase and attempts to move the data to SDE. SDE contains stricter geometric rule enforcement for the data when copying it into an Enterprise geodatabase. I suggest you run Repair Geometry against all feature classes in the feature dataset containing the Parcel Fabric and then attempt to copy the feature dataset again.

Tim, Thanks for looking into this and the snap tool is a good workaround.I definitely do not recommend that the user use the planarize the lines if the "gap" is greater than about twice the cluster tolerance of the topology. It would be nice to have this function built into the tool (I know that you are not on the edit team) instead of having to use a separate geoprocessing tool. Intuitively, editors are more apt to use a built in function or edit tool rather than using a geoprocessing tool. Frank Conkling - Panda Consulting

Jason, Unfortunately, at the moment there is no way to prevent this. However, it would be a great idea to include the option on the pane, similar to the option on the Line Intersection tool. (See screenshot) Frank Conkling - Panda Consulting

If the distance between the endpoints are small enough, you can always use the planarize tool and set the cluster tolerance so that the endpoints snap together. Frank Conkling - Panda Consulting

Anna, If this situation happens often, one suggestion would be to use a construction layer and build the new information in that layer prior to activating a record. That layer can be turned off and not displayed while making any adjustments. One can then use the "Copy Lines To" function to the parcel type and build after any adjustments are performed to the existing data. Frank Conkling - Panda Consulting
