LFE - Modifying the Apexes of Line Features

The Apex pop-up menu, shown below, gives access to options that enable you to change the apexes used in a feature.  You should note that when you are adding points to a line feature, if the point has a feature code, you are given the option to recode the point or to create duplicate.  This is described in the article titled Creating Parallel Features.

The Add Append option allows you add existing apexes to the end of features.  Indicate the end of the feature to append to and the existing point that is to be appended.

The Add Insert option allows you to insert an existing point into a segment of a line feature.   You will be asked to indicate the segment for the insert and then the point to be inserted.

The Remove options allow you to remove a point from a line feature whilst leaving it as a point.  You will be asked to indicate the point to be removed.  The three options handle the code of the removed point in different was

Blank - will set the code of the removed point to empty.

Leave - will leave the code as it was.

Recode - will ask you to enter a new code for the removed point.

The Modify Delete option will delete a point from the model.  To all intents and purposes, it is the same options as that for deleting points except that it only works on points used by line features.
