Beginner ArcGIS Pro 3.4.4 I think - I am drawing pipelines from manhole to manhole and on my map, the line does not reach all the way to the end point. When I click to fix the vertex, it shows a red box for the vertex but they don't match. To get the green pipeline to reach to the manhole, I have to take the end vertex past the end point.

Anyone have an idea what is going on?

@BarbaraDabney A few suggestions:

  1. Try changing the symbol that the green line uses to see if something in the symbology is causing the offset.
  2. Try adding the line and point feature classes to a new map by dragging and dropping them from the geodatabase into the map.
  3. Are there any transformations required on the data? Maybe one is missing? Check in the map's properties > transformation tab.

@BarbaraDabney, what graphics card does your computer/laptop have that you are using?

It's unclear what you are describing. You say "you have to" but does that actually snap the pipe to the manhole so you are drawing your pipes correctly?  I would capture a short video of what your problem is and upload that to this thread.  I often screenTogif for such things.

BarbaraDabney_0-1760475847396.gifI've never recorded before and couldn't get the sound to work but hopefully, in the action recording below you can see the red box which is the vertex that snaps is not at the endpoint of my green pipe. To get the line to draw all the way to the MH (center of the circle) I have to drag the red box PAST the point for the green pipleline to reach. Hope this makes better sense with the recording.  Ideas/solutions very much needed. Thanks, Barbara

It might be an issue with not drawing the pipeline continuously, resulting in many bends. Perhaps you can refer to the methods mentioned here.

Thanks Scott. You put me on the right track. Turns out I had added an offset effect by accident and didn't know what it meant.  Now I do!! Appreciate everyone's help.
