Moving a feature by dragging it

Dragging is the easiest way to move a feature. Use this method when you have a general idea of where you want to move the feature. Use the Edit tool to select and drag features.

Use either the Edit tool or the Edit Annotation tool to drag annotation features. The Edit Annotation tool enables functionality specifically for editing annotation features.

1. Click the Edit tool on the Editor toolbar.
2. Click the feature or features you want to move. Hold down the SHIFT key while clicking features to select additional features.
3. Drag the feature or features to the desired location.
