Very true if you have your snapping tolerance set very low. I personally
like my snapping tolerance high therefore in an attempt to move node by
node I find it easier to disable my snapping all together or hold down
my space bar while moving the nodes to disable the snapping. But as for
the task of creating a new feature or modifying a feature if you have
been utilizing both tasks even if after undoing your edit and the task
reverts to create new feature all you will need to do is double click on
the line and it will shift to the task of modifying. Hope all these
different approaches to your editing problems help Rixanne :o)

That's true if you're not moving it very far, but if you're moving it a
fair distance away from the original position, this isn't a problem.
The snapping tolerance can be set in the Editing Options to reduce the
snapping radius, if this is a problem. Zooming in tighter will also
help with this, because the difference between the scale of snapping and
the scale of editing (i.e., the distance the vertex is being moved)
becomes greater. Basically, one needs to be moving the vertex farther
than the snapping distance.

If you have the snapping on the vertex will want to snap to its original
position and remain unmovable until you deactivate the snapping.

Since I sent a note to Rixanne with nearly-opposite advice, I wanted to
check this against the wisdom of the group.
If Rixanne is having trouble selecting a vertex, wouldn't she want to
have the snapping on for the vertex? I could see that maybe she
wouldn't want the snapping on for the edge, but to me, the easiest way
to grab a vertex is to have the snapping on. Just curious if I'm
missing something.

Try double clicking the line to expose all of the nodes and make sure
your snapping feature is off.

Hi Listers,
I'm having a heck of a time learning how to do simple editing in ArcGIS
9.1. When trying to correct a line, such as to match a road, I have
trouble grabbing just one vertex. If I shake just a tiny bit, the cursor
arrow selects the whole line and moves it as a piece. then you have to
wait for the redraw and move i
