Sep 8, 2014 at 20:19 comment added baconANDeggs "should not" would be in a perfect world. my answer below takes care of part of my question. Yes it does standardize. But my new question is which one. If I have a feature class with a smaller tolerance (shorter average distance) than another feature class with a higher tolerance (longer average difference), would the smaller tolerance feature class be generalized to the larger tolerance feature class in a topology. Do I need to set the topology xy tolerance to the smaller tolerance? And how would that affect the feature class with a larger tolerance?
Sep 8, 2014 at 19:43 comment added Vince Feature datasets exist to standardize the coordinate reference among participating feature classes. There should not be a difference between the tolerances of feature class and feature dataset.
Sep 8, 2014 at 19:24 comment added baconANDeggs So what effects are there when the xy tolerance for a feature class is different from the xy tolerance of a feature dataset it is in? Or if the cluster tolerance in a topology is larger than the xy tolerance for the feature classes? Will the tolerance be taken from the topology cluster tolerance because it is more generalized or the smaller feature xy tolerances etc.?
