@JordanFuhrmann If you can clarify the goal a bit more, perhaps there is existing functionality that will do what you need? Just going by the information you've provided, here are some suggestions: Create Points Along Line and Offset are Editing tools that can create points along a line but they also do not write out a distance attribute for the point. What they will do is store interpolated measure values on m-enabled points if the source line also has its m-values populated. There are few ways to populate m-values on m-enabled lines. https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/editing/edit-vertex-m-values.htm https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/editing/create-a-route-from-line-features.htm If the goal is just to display distance values on a line, perhaps you don't even need the points and you can just use measured hatch symbols to get the desired result. If the goal is something else completely, feel free to fill in the blanks 🙂 -Scott

@StaffanFridhKhamn Create a 2 point line and set the start and end z values as needed, then use Edit Vertices to add vertices while snapping along the line. The new vertices will have interpolated Z values based on the elevation of the start and end vertex: z_vertices.gif Does that help? -Scott

In ArcGIS Pro, This is possible by creating a Group Template and then using the Trace construction tool with that template: https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/editing/introduction-to-feature-templates.htm#ESRI_SECTION1_F316600D63B44E83AB992E26B93174B5 https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/editing/create-a-group-template.htm Scott_Harris_0-1646265962076.png In action: offsettrace.gif

@Bud The Generalize tool found on the Modify Features pane has this option: Scott_Harris_0-1646054838937.png https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/editing/generalize-a-feature.htm Can you please clarify where you are implementing the densify function in Arcade. Is it part of an Attribute Rule?

I'm assuming you mean the coordinate system of the map is WGS 1984 (which also happens to be the coordinate system of the basemap)? If you provide a screenshot, that will help clarify. When editing, it's recommended to have the map and the layers being edited in the same coordinate system.

Hi @emiller you mentioned the 2 layers are in NAD_1983_3TM_111. For the map that reproduces this, what is the coordinate system of the map? Map properties > Coordinate System page > example: Scott_Harris_0-1645797566623.png Also what Transformations are set (on the Transformations page) Scott_Harris_1-1645797717533.png -Scott

No problem @Bud ! I'll set the status of the Idea to closed. If you end up trying Attribute Rules, a good place for questions is https://community.esri.com/t5/attribute-rules/ct-p/attribute-rules

Hi @Bud Is there a reason why Attribute Rules can't be used? https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/data/geodatabases/overview/attribute-rule-script-expression.htm#anchor5 More examples: https://github.com/Esri/arcade-expressions/blob/master/attribute_rule_calculation/RotateFeatureByIntersectedLine.md https://github.com/Esri/arcade-expressions/blob/master/attribute_rule_calculation/SplitIntersectingLine.md https://github.com/Esri/arcade-expressions/blob/master/attribute_rule_calculation/UpdateContainersGeometryViaAssociations.md

I'm marking this Idea as 'Already Offered'. Preset Templates allow you to create a feature or features with a preset geometry. You can also set the rotation while placing features if you choose the 'Point with rotation' tool: https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/editing/introduction-to-feature-templates.htm#ESRI_SECTION1_7DD8DF08631643C4AF80A1BEC0B1FA60 https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/editing/create-a-preset-template.htm

@PeteJordan Thanks for reporting the issue to Support and providing the reproducible steps. For others that might come across this issue, please contact Esri Technical Support so they can make sure your specific workflow matches the description of the following bug: [BUG-000147089 Snapping stops working after using the Edit Vertices or Move tool with a specific workflow] More info: Snapping can temporarily stop working for the Edit Vertices or Move tools if an edit is finished by activating another tool like the Select tool instead of using F2 or by clicking the finish button on the edit toolbar. This bug will be fixed in the next version of ArcGIS Pro (3.0) Until then, to avoid the issue, be sure to finish edits using any of the following methods: Clicking finish on the edit toolbar (bottom of the map) Hitting F2 on the keyboard Clicking off the edited feature (somewhere else on the map) If it should happen, to get snapping back, click on the Active Select tool on the Modify Features pane: Scott_Harris_0-1645565028095.png
