Turn off animated effects in ArcGIS Pro
This is another example of where Pro is clearly and unarguably slower than Arc Map as the OP points out in How to turn off all pulsing-heartbeat and other animated effects in ArcGIS Pro? In the first screen grab, we can see very SLOWLY how first one half, then the other half, of the split polygon is "flashed", with the second half flashing twice. In Arc Map, note how this is instantaneous. When doing a lot of splitting (e.g linear transportation feature where you need to correct a lot of line-meets-intersections, or, even worse in a threat-to-life situation, and you're trying to carve up search or fire suppression assignments very rapidly), the delay adds up, as does what the OP refers to as the animation, which is significantly more noticeable and annoying due to its persistence time. While all of the pulsing flashing is going on, if you go back to the select tool to grab the select by rectangle, then select your next polygon to split, there is an additional 1-2 second delay until tool focus returns.
used ScreenToGif - Record your screen, edit and save as a Gif or video and did not slow down the frame rate in the Pro grab, 30 FPS for both grabs. Both same excessively well-equipped computer, same data source (local FGDB).
To be honest, I've never reported this or many other performance issues as I've assumed they're already logged they're so obvious.
I'm visually reviewing impervious cover data beneath 400+ grid features and each time i move to the next grid feature, it's flashes. Waiting for the flash to disappear is adding substantial time to complete this review. I would love a way to disable the flash when browsing features.
