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 a duplicate. This is described in the article titled Creating Parallel Features.

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