@DianeBaker  Regarding your comment about "I do miss the days when I didn't have to touch the mouse so much" : Is this specific to the above workflow or a general comment? If this is a general comment more examples would be great, maybe under a different thread. Unlike AutoCAD command line or ArcInfo Workstation, where you type shortcuts - ArcGIS Pro uses keyboard shortcuts. Finding the correct point numbers on the map can also consume a few mouse clicks and take time and has the potential for mistakes (typing the wrong point number). We are always looking for ways to improve the software and make it more efficient. ... View more

@AdamHart1 and @jcarlson  - thanks for posting this question. We plan to expand on the parcel lineage in future releases and this also includes 'back porting' it for historic parcels. The ArcMap parcel fabric associated parcels to the plan from which they were created from but did not track which record (plan) retired each parcel. Since this information is usually stored in the business system (CAMA / Land registration) we should be able to do it. We need to better understand your business requirements and available inputs: 1. Do you have the historic parcels in your parcel fabric? Are you only trying to associate the historic parcels to the record that retired them? 2. Do you see value in having records in the parcel fabric that have no parcels associated with them?  3. Do you see value in importing historic parcels from the business system that will result in parcels that have no geometries? They could potentially become historic parcel seeds in the area of the current parcels they've created until they are created. It would be great if others also join this discussion. @FrankConkling  for example 😉   ... View more

@anna_garrett  This sounds more like a bug that needs to get fixed than an idea for an enhancement. At least this is how the development team has been addressing it. We expect responsive data entry for all editing operations. We have made some improvements in ArcGIS Pro 2.8 and will continue to work to improve the lag time. Which version of ArcGIS Pro are you using? Did you try to move the file geodatabase frm the network drive to your local machine to see if this is caused by a network issue? Please submit a technical support case whenever you encounter an issue that falls short of your expectations. Thanks, Amir   ... View more

@RobertPendergrass1 Apologies! We are frustrated as well as we cannot reproduce the issue. Can you please tell us which version of Pro you were using? Do you see an exclamation mark next to the first task?  Each task has a unique identifier so this is not supposed to happen. Do you see the same result when you import that task file into a different project? If you log this with technical support and provide your project and task file we can have a closer look. Amir ...

@JeffWard  Traverse - we have made improvements to the traverse with ArcGIS Pro 2.8 but know that there is still more to do. Subdivision entry efficiency - you are making an interesting statement and we would like to look into it. Are you aware that you can override the attribute values and digitize 2-point lines for repetitive lot lines as shown below?   Entering and editing in ArcGIS Pro is much more efficient. Should we setup time to meet and understand where you see additional deficiencies? This is the help topic for feature templates attribute override. Thanks, Amir ... View more

Good job @Paul_Christensen! Looping @RichardShepherd  Have a look at this post where Richard mentions the new Arcade capabilities to format a direction using the ConvertDirection function (https://developers.arcgis.com/arcade/function-reference/geometry_functions/#convertdirection). The default popups for parcel fabric lines should show you the direction using quadrant bearing. You can get the default symbology if you simply add the parcel fabric to a new map:     ... View more

Hi Dean We actually had this in our backlog but ran into the following issue: 'Active record' is known in the context of $map (each Pro client map might have a different active record). Attribute Rules work in the context of $dataStore = they are not specific to any client and work in the feature class level in the geodatabase. So the problem is that an Attribute Rule cannot use a $map.  I cannot see how this can be solved for attribute rules. Tasks, as you have noted, is viable. ... View more

@DeanAnderson2  If you know the name of the record (e.g. 'TEST 1') you can use the Arcade 'Filter' method to create a feature set, then take the first feature in the set (it should only contain one feature). You will have to check if it is empty.   I didn't verify the following expression but it should/could look similar to this: var recordsFS = FeatureSetByName($datastore, "ParcelFabric_Records",['Name'], true); var recordName = 'Test1'; var sql = "Name = " + "'" + recordName + "'; var activeRecord = First(Filter(parcelsFS, sql));   An 'Active Record' is specific to ArcGIS Pro and to the Active Map View. Would the above work? If you need to know the active record without knowing the record name, we could consider adding a $map.ActiveRecord method.     ... View more

If the 'From' and 'To' points are of interest, they can be calculated using an Attribute Rule, but there is no intention of using attributes to define the topological relationship between points, lines and polygons. This approach, which was used in ArcMap has a lot of 'overhead' as an update (=insert, update, delete) to any of the trio (point, line, polygon) has a cascading effect that requires selecting the features in the database (SQL query). The spatial relationship in the new parcel fabric is based on spatial coincidence. This approach is more scalable and does not require things like 'line-points', radial lines, and curve center points.  ... View more

Marking as 'Already Offered' as the Scale correction (and rotation) are already exposed in their dedicated HUD (Head Over Display) on the map regardless of the tool being used. See @TimHodson reply for more details. ... View more
