In our professional drawing office and many other internationally we have to add "clouds" around parts of the map or alignment sheet which have been revised or updated. Clouds seem to be the excepted standard accepted by engineers globally

I know in AutoCAD they just have a pen tool with which can draw a "cloud" around anything. In ArcMap it is a nightmare and if you use the freehand graphic tool they look awful and copying and pasting in images is not ideal especially when it come to unusual shapes. ArcGIS needs this tool.

When you update to ArcGIS Pro 2.9 you'll be able to draw clouds!

Clouds are part of a suite of new graphics available.  See Enhance graphics capability and functionality and Rounded Rectangles – Drawing Toolbar as well.

Ideas in ArcGIS Pro 2.9 shows all the ideas you can expect in 2.9.  Go to 7:08 to see a little cloud demo!
