I actually took the 2 day Introduction to ArcGIS Pro in classroom course and the instructor was not able solve this.  I am a long time ArcGIS user so I am very familiar with snapping options and preferences including the classic version 8,9 environments. Pro is a completely new animal built from ground up to eventually replace the legacy software we know and sometimes love (sometimes hate).  It feels and behaves different.  My immediate assumption was the same - snapping options, tolerances, etc. Nope.  So far, I can only confirm this happens when snapping is set to vertex and or intersection and using the split line tool.  Have not tried other tools since this is a major obstacle for me.  It cannot be tolerance because the tool clearly snaps to the correct snapping point and reports (snapped to this or that) but when the split happens, it splits the line ...

You need an extra step in Pro -> Insert map.  When you insert a map you can drag and drop contents to the maps Contents pane. ... View more

Yes that's correct.  It's the .aprx file.  (And Yes it's very confusing especially for those users who haven't used a ribbon environment such as new versions of AutoCAD.)  However, you cannot just create a "document" as you do in ArcMap.  It's very different from the ArcMap approach.  ArcPro has a completely new interface that is Project- based rather that a single document-centric.  By default, when you create a new project, a project geodatabase, project toolbox, default folder is also automatically created within the project structure hierarchy. You can then insert multiple maps, scenes as well as multiple layouts and insert various maps on any layouts.  It's actually more similar to AutoCAD then ArcMap - in autocad you work on a model space and you can then create multiple layouts with viewports into the model space.  Also by default, when you insert a new map to your project it's set to the ESRI topo basemap.  You can customize some of this behaviour in the Project Options: Project Tab -> Options -> Map and Scene -> Basemap. However, I am not sure why, you currently cannot customize the behaviour for creating Project Files: Pro will create the default project items. You can only specify in which location or what database. Hopefully a 3rd "none" option will bee added in future release so that users are not forced to create the project structure. As a side note, you will have to completely rethink how you use tools and properties in Pro:  Just like in AutoCAD, the ribbon-based approach is CONTENT SENSITIVE. In other words, when you click on an item in say the TOC only those tools and commands pertaining to the operations for that particular item will be active on the ribbon. ... View more

You will not only need Standard but Advanced (ArcInfo) license to be able to use all ArcHydro functionality. Many processes require Standard licensing but at least the following require Advanced licensing: Terrain Morphology Drainage Boundary Definition - Generate 3D boundary lines for selected drainage areas. Terrain Morphology/Drainage Boundary Processing Drainage Boundary Definition - Generate 3D boundaries lines for the polygon features in the input Drainage Area feature class. Terrain Morphology/Grouping Generate Group Junction - Create a new Group Junction feature class by reselecting from Hydro Junctions that meet one of the grouped junction criteria. Terrain Preprocessing Workflows Basic Combined Terrain Processing -Model in the geoprocessing environment performing the basic terrain preprocessing steps for a dendritic and deranged terrain. Basic Deranged Terrain Processing - Model in the geoprocessing environment performing the basic terrain preprocessing steps for a deranged terrain, i.e. a terrain with sinks. ... View more

You need ArcGIS Advaced license (formerly known as ArcInfo) to use all ArcHydro functionality.  Tools that require higher license will crash under basic or standard license. ... View more

This has been solved - the tool does not work when background geoprocessing is turned on. I can confirm that in version 10.2.1 this tool does not work when background geoprocessing is turned on and it does work when it is turned off. Some users on GIS SE hinted that this bug has been addressed in 10.2.2 but I've seen at least one post indicating otherwise.   It's becoming a good practice to NEVER turn on background geoprocessing.  Something is clearly broken there. ...

This is almost certainly a bug!  I get the same result with a simple single feature. ... View more

Hi Ben, Are you using the 3D Layer to Feature Class tool in ArcMap or ArcScene?  The tool uses the 3D layer properties and creates the multipatch.  In ArcMap there are no 3D properties, so the resulting multipatch would be flat.  You will need to run the tool in ArcScene with the 3D properties applied to the layer. How Layer 3D To Feature Class (3D Analyst) works -Timothy This still does not work in 10.2.1.  In ArcScene running 3D Layer to Feature Class tool on a feature layer that has been extruded returns a FLAT multipatch. ...

One workaround is to merge all lines into a single multi-geometry, then use the split tool as per usual. ... View more

Its the ArcMap application config file \ArcGIS\Desktop10.0\bin\arcmap.exe.config Its an xml file so modify it with notepad. This isn't an official solution by the way.... This solution doesn't work ... View more

I'm having a similar problem in 2010 Express. ArcMap has been reinstalled and is now in a new folder. When I build and run debugger, it says that it can't start debugger because it can't find ArcMap.exe. How do I tell Visual Studio where ArcMap.exe is? Thanks, Derek Having the same issue. Were you able to solve it? ... View more
