About States of Editing
There are three levels or states in which you can be working when editing a feature. The state determines what is available for selection so you can, for example, change values easily and efficiently. Feature editing is the highest level at which you can edit. When you complete your dimension or sections editing and exit, you remain in the top level Feature editing state.
• Edit Feature—This is the top editing level. From here you can go to the other editing states.
• Edit Dimension—After selecting a dimension, editing is filtered so only dimensions are available for selection and change. When you exit dimension editing, you are still in Edit Feature.
• Edit Section—After selecting a section, editing is filtered so only sub-items for the section are available for selection and change. When you exit section editing, you are still in Edit Feature.
