Use this command to split geospatial features and assign feature property
values for resulting features.
When you split a feature, the resulting feature property values are determined
by rules you specify in the Split and Merge Rules dialog box (page 1669).
You can set defaults for the split prompts in the
Feature Editing Options dialog
box
(page 1929). You can also turn off two of the prompts, so that split operations
use the values set in that dialog box instead.
