The Edit: Update tool allows you to edit existing objects. Please consider that the WebOffice map widget only supports editing of point features. It is not possible to edit the geometry of line or polygon features. In general the WebOffice map widget supports two different kinds of editing features:

•Edit via cross hair

•Edit via clickmode

Note: For creating new features within the WebOffice map widget, please use the tool Edit: Create.
