I am creating a model with buffer tool based on the buffered area a selection of a feature within this buffered area manually then the buffer to continue on the newly selected feature. This process to continue for about 10 times. using Iteration for. Please help me.

Model parameters allow for user interaction.

Model parameters—ArcGIS Pro | ArcGIS Desktop

but it isn't clear whether an iterator can incorporate 10 separate entities. A preselection of features by a selection of the layer as a model parameter may the closest you can get, unless you can find an example of a parameter selection within an iterator in the model

Hi Mr. Dan Patterson,

Thank you for your reply.

I am trying to create a FEEDER line Feature by connecting POLES in a feature class. I will select the first pole using the select feature tool. Then I do a buffer on POLES feature class with a required distance on the selected pole. I will start Edit session and add the Feeder feature from the selected pole, then I select the 2nd required pole within the Buffered area and connect the feeder line to the new pole, then I do the buffer on the newly selected pole and repeat this process until I complete the feeder line.

I hope this will give you my requirement. I could do this using a model builder with buffer tool and manually selecting the next pole and connecting the feeder line manually. My question whether I can do the buffering within an iteration and selecting the next pole and connecting the feeder line manually and then the iteration to continue for a required number of times.. It means the Buffering only by using the Iteration.
