Edit surfaces using data edit operations, which are added to a surface definition as edit operations and not to any of the existing surface data components.
You can access the data editing functionality for a surface by right-clicking 
Edits under a surface Definition in the Prospector tree. If a surface type does not support an edit operation, the operation is not listed. The following table lists the edits that are supported for each surface type:
