Additional Information
The reported issue, as it is described, cannot be reproduced within the currently released build.Workaround
Workaround 1: Use the Generalize tool. The tool separates the vertices evenly and prevent protruding lines from appearing. Workaround 2: Zoom to where the protruding line begins, double-click the polygon to reveal the vertices, and separate the ones that are the closest. This can be done by right-clicking on a vertice to remove it and by right-clicking on a line to add a vertice at another location if needed.Steps to Reproduce
