I've been using this tool for 4 years and just discovered that if you hold down the control key while selecting the line, it will offer to align to the farther line. By default it tries to align to the closest line and that's not always what you want.
Thanks! When playing with this tool, I noticed that I deleted some boundaries completely, and luckily, I could just control Z, but it was a shock. I was playing with blocks data, and I decided to replace the overly edited blocks, which was necessary in the long run.
@@GISChops I asked you to help me clip a logo recently. I tried several things, but I was able to make a circle in PowerPoint, and fill it with the pic. It saved as a png. It was very crisp, and nice!! Now I can use it anywhere, and it sizes well.
Have you had any issues with topology drastically slowing down your map after aligning more than a few edges? It became almost unusable after about 10 minutes.
I haven’t. But I use map topology very rarely. I wonder if saving periodically, then turning off map topology then back on again would clear the memory cache that it occupies?
@@GISChops Yeah. Closing Pro entirely and reopening the map seems to help. I've never bothered to submit a ticket to ESRI because I too use it fairly infrequently, but I do on occasion come across a layer from before my time that needs a mass cleanup.

Nice tip! I’ll pin this comment.

I’m glad to hear you are getting it in your tool belt.

Excellent tutorial, pacing, etc! This is exactly what I was looking for.
I’m glad it worked for you. Be sure to subscribe for more like it.
Would you mind being interviewed? Not for the channel, but for a class I’m taking.
@@GISChops I was already subscribed! I'd be happy to be interviewed. What's the best way to get you my contact info?
Do you do Instagram? You could send me your email in a DM over there, and I’ll send you a link to my schedule. @gischops is my handle on Instagram.

One thing to check is your cache amount in Project>Display. If the cache is more than a gig I clear it and that seems to help.

@@curtistyler9991 Interesting. I was not familiar with that. I will keep that in mind next time. Thank you!
Thanks for the input Curtis!
