Thank you @DanPatterson! This saved me a lot of extra frustration. My field aliases were using . instead of underscores.

This one was great! Thanks!

@JasonFullerYou are able to specify the curve parameters in the drop down at the top of each field, but you have to do it before entering any data. I usually select Chord in the Direction field, and I use the delta in the final field. I guess you are locked in on the radius, but I can't remember the last time a description didn't use the radius. And as far as the ArcMap traverse tool goes, the Pro traverse entry grid is much faster than the ArcMap traverse tool. I hate having to change between direction-distance, curve and tangent curve it slows everything down.

I'm glad it worked for you. I run in fear from spaces in file names and folder names. I am mocked by my younger colleagues. 🙂

What if you used an underscore instead of . for your 2nd geodatabase? like: geodb2 = env.replace('.', '_') + ext

Pro is notorious for needing the file system "refreshed" you most likely need to click the refresh button on the dialog to load your traverse.

Those old hand drawn plats are fun. I'm wondering if you are experiencing the phenomenon that I have observed where they will push all of their errors into one area of the plat. On the plats I have seen this, they usually have the correct bearing and distance labeled, but the line is definitely shorter or longer than what is labeled. I would try entering just that lot with the 100' back lot line and see if it closes. Does the plat georeference very well?

They have an edit tool that works like one. I use it by creating a line or polygon feature, click once on the map to start a sketch, then right click and choose "Circular Arc", I then fill it in with the parameters I have, let's say I know the arc length but want to know the delta angle. I enter the arc length, then change the parameter type to delta angle.

@NickN great idea! Until they implement it, you don't have to break out the calculator to do the math on your own. You can make Pro do it for you, but you have to be creating a line or polygon feature. Start your sketch, then right click and choose Circular Arc, then fill in the parameters that you have, after you enter the chord length, change it to Arc Length and Pro will do that math for you.

You are able to use the traverse tool with polygon layers and non-cogo line layers that don't have cogo attributes.

I had to close and restart Pro to see it in the Add-In Manger section of the backstage.

@AshleyPotter - No I haven't. I noticed you asked this question today during the meetup. I haven't tested it yet, but I'm thinking my problem is due to the fact that a line stays associated to its original record if it is unchanged by the edit. Even if I use the Copy Lines To tool, If I don't change the lines, they aren't going to end up in the new record, so when I hit the "Show Only Active" button, those unchanged lines disappear. @JasonCamerano mentioned that today in his demonstration - he has probably said it before in his other presentations, but today was the first time I actually heard it and it made sense to me.

I am experiencing the same thing. It happens when I merge two parcels as well.

I was just getting on here to post what @JonathanNeal has already posted. Project -> Options >- Units -> Distance Units -> Then click on select unit code and add Chain_US, then you can use the ch override in the traverse tool.

Thanks @George_Thompson , I'm looking at moving our database to another server. The one it is on now can't be updated due to other systems relying on it. Thanks for your help.
