Hi, for a while I've doing a lot of editing in a polygon layer containing construct polygons tool, merging them, spliting and so on. I ended up with a polygon layer with about few hundreds of polygons but due to editing they have ObjectIDs from 1 to about 3000.
I know that ObjectID is a field handled by ArcGIS but I was curious if there is any way how to change the ObjectIDs in the end. How to sort them from number 1 continuously again.
Thanks you for an answer.

Hi Radek,

Try exporting the data, this should reset the ObjectIDs.

Best,
