Edit a section to change its appearance or move it in the drawing.
To edit a section, the section must be a static type section (that is, a section that is not dynamic). For more information about static and dynamic update modes for sections, see Section Data Tab (Section Properties Dialog Box).
Use the Section Editor to view and edit section data. If the section is dynamic, the data is grayed out in the Section Editor and not editable. Change the Update Mode to Static in the Section Properties dialog box if you want to edit a section.
You can also use section grip editing to manipulate static sections. For example, you can alter the section yet maintain the grade or elevation while stretching a segment or moving grade points.
For more information about static and dynamic update modes for sections, see Section Data Tab (Section Properties Dialog Box).
