Modify Geometry

Modify an existing geometry. Will be disabled if there is no feature selected. You can modify an existing feature (using the Update tool) or one that you are in the process of creating (using the Create tool). Modifications can be made by:

• Using the centre node (shown as an orange circle): Click and drag the point, line or polygon to a new location.
• Using the vertices and end points (shown as orange circles): Click and drag the vertex/end point to a new location. Or hold your mouse over the vertex/end point and press the Delete key to delete it. 
• Using the edge mid-points (shown as faded orange circles in the middle of an edge): Click on new node to add and/or move node to a new location. 

Create Geometry

• Point - Create a new point. Will be disabled if the entity doesn't support point geometry or if it only supports a single point and there already is a point attached to the entity.
• Line - Create a new line. Will be disabled if the entity doesn't support line geometry or if it only supports a single line and there already is a line attached to the entity.
• Polygon - Create a new polygon. Will be disabled if the entity doesn't support polygon geometry or if it only supports a single polygon and there already is a polygon attached to the entity.

Delete Geometry

Remove the currently selected geometry. Will be disabled if there is no geometry enabled or if the entity requires some geometry and this is the last piece of geometry related to the entity.

Import geometry from another entity. The feature must firstly be selected from the other entity/Active Layer.

From Weave 2.5.29, this tool can be used for the import of geometry and/or attributes. 

Upload geometry from a file. Will be disabled if editing is not in progress.

From Weave 2.6.4, this tool can be used to load spatial data from a supported spatial file format. 

Create geometry from text coordinates. Will be disabled if editing is not in progress.

From Weave 2.6.4, this tool can be used to load spatial data from a one or more coordinate pairs in a variety of formats.
