Edit vertices

Path objects like polylines are defined by their vertices, and you can rework them without redrawing anything.

Move a vertex with its grip​

Select the object: every vertex shows a small square grip. Drag a grip and release it on the new position. The status bar guides you ("Grip editing: release on the new position.").

Add or delete a vertex with the right-click menu​

With the object selected:

  • Right-click on a segment to add a vertex at that spot.
  • Right-click on an existing vertex to delete it.

The right-click menu on a polyline segment

The status bar confirms the edit and keeps count, for example "Vertex added - 5 vertices". The Properties panel of a polyline also reports its vertex total.

tip

The right-click menu is reserved for the Select tool. While a drawing tool is active (Polyline, Spline, Hatch...), the right click finishes the drawing instead.
