Adding Multipart features—Polyline

Generally speaking, a set of attributes contains a feature. However, if you would like to add multiple features referring to a set of attributes, you can use the following methods to edit. Firstly, click "Start Editing", choose target layer, and click "Add New Layers" and "Sketch tool." The first method is to create the first polyline feature. At the last vertex, right-click and click "Finish Part" in the menu. Then, you can repeat the actions described above until the multipart polyline features are finished. To finish the editing, you can right-click and click "Finish Sketch." The Multipart features are completed.

The other method is to sketch the polyline features in Map window with the keyboard; every time a feature is finished, press "Shift" on the keyboard and double-click. Repeat the actions until the multipart polyline features are completed. Then, right-click and click "Finish Sketch" to complete the multipart features.

NOTE: The methods to add multipart features cannot be reference to manipulating "Rectangle tool" and "Circle tool."
