Select features for Reshape<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Reshape<\/strong> includes an Active Select<\/strong> tool that facilitates the interactive selection of features that satisfy the tool\u2019s input criteria. When the Reshape <\/strong>pane opens, if there is a valid selection, the Reshape<\/strong> tool will be active. But, if there is not a valid selection when the pane opens, the Active Select<\/strong> tool will be active. Select the features in the map with the Active Select <\/strong>tool to automatically activate the Reshape <\/strong>tool. Then, mid-sketch, switch to the Active Select<\/strong> tool to add more features to the selection set for reshape (if you switch to the core Selection<\/strong> tool on the ribbon tab, the reshaping sketch will be discarded).<\/p>\n

Show preview option<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The Show Preview<\/strong> option is new at ArcGIS Pro 3.5 and allows you to preview likely results by showing feature symbology on the reshaping sketch. Show Preview<\/strong> is available with or without a selection. Previewing the results can assist in making accurate, detailed edits. Be aware that it is a preview of the anticipated results based on the current state of the reshaping sketch and may not have all the reshape information. With Show Preview<\/strong> on, consider if the in-progress sketch is valid when making decisions. Sometimes moving the pointer across the features will provide enough information about the result without having to place a vertex, but the vertex will need to be placed before the edit can succeed.<\/p>\n
