Nodes are hidden markers identifying elements of geometric objects. The Edit Tool enables you to reshape objects by editing their nodes. You can edit a single node or multiple nodes - even a group of nodes belonging to different objects.

There are several ways to activate the Edit Tool: Click Edit Tool on the Select toolbar, then select the object to edit.

When the node editing is finished, you can return to Select Edit mode by selecting it from the local menu, by clicking the icon on the Inspector Bar, or by pressing Esc. img You can then exit Select mode by clicking outside the selection set, or by pressing Esc again.

Note: If you need to node edit an object that is part of a group, explode the group first (Modify / Explode). For an object that is part of a block, you can node edit the object in Edit Content mode.
