It also allows you to set preconditions for tools. I can't seem to find that tool or the ability to create preconditions in ModelBuilder in ArcGIS Pro. Is there something similar that I am missing in ArcGIS Pro?</P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 01 Aug 2018 14:13:59 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/quot-connect-quot-tool-in-arcgis-pro-modelbuilder/m-p/658053#M29192 JoelFoster1 2018-08-01T14:13:59Z Re: "Connect" tool in ArcGIS Pro ModelBuilder https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/quot-connect-quot-tool-in-arcgis-pro-modelbuilder/m-p/658054#M29193 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>There is no connect tool because with the default mouse click you can both select elements or draw connections.</P><P><A class="link-titled" href="http://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/help/analysis/geoprocessing/modelbuilder/modelbuilder-changes-in-arcgis-pro.htm#ESRI_SECTION1_EABFFB85325B455C8D8822A6B7450A01" title="http://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/help/analysis/geoprocessing/modelbuilder/modelbuilder-changes-in-arcgis-pro.htm#ESRI_SECTION1_EABFFB85325B455C8D8822A6B7450A01">ModelBuilder: migration to ArcGIS Pro</A>&nbsp;</P><P><A class="link-titled" href="http://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/help/analysis/geoprocessing/modelbuilder/add-connect-and-modify-data-and-tools-in-a-model.htm#ESRI_SECTION1_A86D00610465496CA128D07C75F2BC87" title="http://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/help/analysis/geoprocessing/modelbuilder/add-connect-and-modify-data-and-tools-in-a-model.htm#ESRI_SECTION1_A86D00610465496CA128D07C75F2BC87">Connect data and tools</A>&nbsp;</P><P></P><P><IMG alt="Connect an input dataset to a tool" class="image-1 jive-image j-img-original" src="/legacyfs/online/416704_mb connect.gif" /></P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 01 Aug 2018 19:00:53 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/quot-connect-quot-tool-in-arcgis-pro-modelbuilder/m-p/658054#M29193 DrewFlater 2018-08-01T19:00:53Z
