Visual total distance when creating a line feature (ArcGIS Pro)

[JohnWry1]

Good Day Folks,

When I am creating a line feature, I want to be able to visual see the total length of my line

that I have sketched already. I know when you have constraints on that you visually see the

distance from node to node but I would like total distance. Is there any possible way or code

snippet out there that would allow me to do this?

Cheers,
Josh.

Hi John, 

It's not possible out of the box, but this is an interesting idea. You might want to post your specific use case over in Ideas: https://community.esri.com/community/arcgis-ideas

Thanks,

Scott

Specifically, it would be this idea https://community.esri.com/ideas/17729 While the description is about polygons, the functionality, if/when implemented, would need to cover digitizing lines and polygons.

Thank you folks for answering my question in a quick manner! I will be looking forward to the implementation of the idea that Kory shared in his post.

Cheers.
