Enable grouping vertices while streaming in ArcGIS Pro

In ArcMap when you are creating or reshaping features and using streaming, you can group vertices together so that if you hit undo while streaming only the last 10 (or what ever number you choose) vertices will be deleted. In ArcGIS Pro there is no way to group vertices like this so if you hit undo while you are still in the process of reshaping or creating a feature, it deletes all of the vertices since you last clicked your mouse or tapped your screen to pause streaming. This is inconvenient if you were in the process of drawing a very long line or complex shape and you made a small error that you want to fix. The option to group vertices should be added to the streaming options dialogue box.

Shannon,

Thank you for the idea. While the idea for grouping vertices during streaming is Under Consideration, I want to share with you two new to Pro sketch Context Menu items that could be helpful when vertices need to be removed. This is for all sketching tools (create, Reshape, Continue Feature, etc) and could be especially useful for the streaming constructor if there are unwanted vertices.

- While sketching, ensure that Vertex Editing toggle is ON on the Edit Toolbar

- Hover over a vertex and wait for the cursor to change

- After the cursor changes, right click on the Vertex and choose either Trim Before or Trim After

- the sketch is trimmed, removing all segments and vertices prior to the vertex or after

- resume the sketch
