· To edit the shape of a line or
polygon feature, you work with its sketch.
· You can modify a feature's shape by
moving, inserting, and deleting vertices.
· Editing the shape of a feature that
is spatially related to another feature affects the other feature's shape—to
maintain the integrity of your database, it's important to maintain feature
spatial relationships when editing.

spatially related features simultaneously.
· To edit feature attributes, you can
manually enter edits in the Attributes dialog or in the attribute table.
