Creating and Editing Features

At any time that the Digitizer Tool is active, you have the option to create new area, line, and point features simple by right-clicking and selecting either the Create Area/Polygon Features, Create Line Features (Vertex or Trace Mode), or Create Point/Text Features options on the popup menu.

In addition to creating new vector features, the Digitizer Tool is also very useful for editing existing vector features. This tool provides the ability to move, delete, and reshape vector features, using the options found in the Move/Reshape Feature(s) menu option. The Attribute/Style Functions menu contains tools for modifying the label, classification, drawing style, and attribution of any vector feature loading from any file format supported by Global Mapper.

Note than any edits made are NOT automatically saved back to the origin file, but they will be saved in Global Mapper workspaces and into any exported vector files.
