Ability to "Paste Special" multiple selected features into another layer

AdmininstratorRDOS — Tue, 20 May 2025 18:56:03 GMT

Using the Web Editor in ArcGIS Entreprise 11.3 has been great! But it is not possible to "Paste Special" multiple selected features from a layer into a different layer/hosted feature class. Only one selected feature can be "Paste Special" in a different layer.

Being able to copy and paste special more than one selected feature from a layer into another layer would make drawing and editing workflows so much faster!

@CraigGillgrass Thank you for the quick reply - this is great. Is there a specific release targeted for this enhancement?

@CraigGillgrassThanks. What about for Enterprise?

It should be in next release of Enterprise, i.e. the release after Enterprise 11.5 @AdmininstratorRDOS

I noticed the same problem in the AGO Beta version.

Being able to copy/paste/merge multiple polygons from a related layer (in my case, parcel boundaries) to the editable layer (Permit boundaries) would be super helpful.

Let us know if this meets your needs when its available. If something is missing or not working, please let us know.
