I don't know why on earth this decision was made to NOT have duplicate the default, but I implore Esri to fix this mistake. 99% of the time I try to fix this in my domains I can't due to a lock from another user in the database. I really don't like having to sign in at off hours to fix these sorts of things. You figured this out in ArcMap, why did you forget about it in ArcPro?</P> Fri, 27 Mar 2026 20:37:52 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/splitting-attribute-issues/m-p/1693220#M102578 TimothyHazekamp 2026-03-27T20:37:52Z
