Adjacent instrument approach profile view elements are connected through nodes and lines. When lines and points intersect (as in the intersection of a flight path and a vertical), a node is present. When a node is selected, the node selection is of a higher priority than the corresponding line endpoint. When a node is selected, the selection envelope of the point is identified by the four small vertices of the selection envelope, as shown in the image below.
When a line is selected, the endpoints of the line are identified by the filled boxes at either end of the line, as shown in the image below.
