ArcGIS Web Editor is now available for general use. The first release of Web Editor includes several editing tools, snapping configurations, keyboard shortcuts for common editing workflows, and many other features. Highlights from the release are listed below:
- The following editing tools are available for creating and modifying features: Create features, Copy and Paste, Attributes, Move, Vertices, Reshape, Split, and Merge.
- Snapping is a feature drawing aid that helps control the accuracy of the pointer when drawing geometries near a vertex or other geometry. You can configure snapping options for a web map, including enabling snapping, geometry guides, and feature to feature snapping.
- Rectangle, polygon, and lasso selection tools are available to select features on a map. You can also select features from a table or use the Selection pane to create an attribute query. For more information, visit Select features.
- Editing constraints are available when using drawing tools. Editing constraints are used to input exact values for the angle or distance of a line segment, or the coordinates of a point or vertex.
- Keyboard shortcuts are available for many common editing tasks, including enabling tools, opening panes, navigating the map, and applying editing constraints.
- Undo and Redo buttons are available when using the drawing tools.
