Steps

  1. Set the target line or region geometry layer to editable in the map.
  2. Select line/region features to be divided in the editable layer. Click Object Split in the Feature Editing group's Gallery control under Features tab.
  3. When prompted "Please select the object to split" on cursor, choose a line/region object as the cutting object. The selected target objects will be divided at intersection areas.
