Subject: [gislist] Fwd: strange edit prob in AV3.2
Date:  07/25/2005 05:05:01 PM
From:  Rixanne Wehren




>Hello again,


I find that I didn't make problem very clear last note.

Iam using Win 2000, and have updated with service packs 1-4, ArcView 3.2

I am using the Vertex Edit Tool (unfilled arrowhead) to try to select a
hollow square vertex handle on a line. [finally got the names right] but it
will not select the handle.

Clicking on a handle does not highlight it, nor make it movable. Yes, the
shapefile is in edit mode. This is the tool I am asking about. The
shapefile was converted from a coverage (arc).

Other shapefiles do not seem to have this problem. Any ideas on why this
converted one is resisting?

thanks, Rixanne
