4.“Edit Attribute” dialog box shows up, in which you can create attribute data. After the data is accomplished, tap OK.

5.You will find the polyline is added to the map. Polygon can be created in the same way as well.

NOTE: if the layer on which you are to create features is being graded (which means the symbol type is Graduated Symbol or Unique Symbol in layer properties), sometimes you might find that the created features do not appear on the map. In this case, please go check the attribute data of the created features. If the attribute values are outside the grades, the features will not appear on the map but are added to the layer indeed. Please reconfirm whether the attribute values are set correct or re-grade the layer. The created feature's attribute value will be also re-graded and displayed in the corresponding symbol.
