Edit/Stop Editing

Set the line-editing mode.

  • Normal operation in this mode is to create a line while dragging the mouse.
  • If you press Shift, it selects a line that is close enough to the cursor when you click the mouse, and moves the end of that line to the point where it is dragged. If a green rectangle appears while dragging the line end, it snaps to the end of the closest segment upon release.
  • The mode is reset once the mouse is released.
  • The behavior of the click-and-drag motion while pressing Alt remains the same as outside of the line-editing mode.
Modify

Apply the new values to the current line, or add a new line if one was created.

Remove

Remove the line from the pattern. Pressing Shift while clicking this button removes all the selected items.
