Split does not work with streamlined polygon

[Manu]

I used the Streaming tool to draw a large polygon. Now I wanted to remove some patches inside, however, when I finish a circle with the Split tool, the following Error appears:

Split failed. Geometry must intersect polylines and polygons in two or more places.

The message did not appear when I tried the same with polygons that I drew using the regular "draw Polygon" feature

Simplify Polygon (Cartography)—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation

or

Generalize (Editing)—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation

because you probably have way too many vertices and curves.

If that doesn't help use

Repair Geometry (Data Management)—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation

Thanks, simplifying the Polygon made it editable. The Error message is a bit misleading, though.

Thank you, this worked. I have been searching for a solution for a long time. This is it!

Assuming you are working on a Geodatabase Feature Class, could you make a copy of the feature class and try again?

Close all ArcGIS Applications, and restart ArcGIS Pro, if required.
