intervals that are less than or equal to the supplementing distance. The
smaller the distance, the greater the number of supplemented points.
8 For Bulge, enter the bulge factor value, or click Pick to specify it in the
drawing.
The bulge factor adds vertices to a polyline curve, creating an
approximation of the curve using straight line segments. The bulge value
is a ratio of the distance from the arc to the chord divided by half the
length of the chord.
9 Continue specifying Drawing Cleanup settings. Click Finish.
When the operation is complete, the total number of original vertices, the

Creating, Editing, and Managing Topologies
A topology is defined by a set of objects and data and their relationship. Use
the information in these sections to create, analyze, edit, and manage
topologies.
NOTE This functionality is for drawing objects only. There is no equivalent for
geospatial feature data. However, you can use buffers to analyze features by
proximity and perform overlay analysis on two geospatial feature layers. See
Buffering Features in Your Map (page 1306) and Overlaying Two Feature Sources
(page 1309).
